Real estate’s Property Cup raises over £7,000 for Bobby Moore Fund

September 25, 2024

The organisers of this year’s Property Cup, real estate’s popular annual football tournament, presented a cheque for £7,046 to the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research at a special ceremony at Wembley Stadium recently.

In May, 14 teams competed at QPR’s Loftus Road ground, for the Property Cup and Plate Trophy – sponsored by Costar News, Smart Spaces, Porterfield PR and Tayler Reid – with Lambert Smith Hampton and Savills emerging as respective winners.

Jon Rea-Palmer, organiser of the event said: “We are grateful to all our colleagues in real estate and our partners for their generous charity-giving and participation. Once again the Property Cup was a tremendous success and we are already looking forward eagerly to 2025.”

Stephanie Moore OBE, the founder of the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK, said, “I’d like to thank Jon, Ian and the rest of the Property Cup committee for organising such a fantastic tournament on QPR’s fabulous pitch and congratulations to winning team, LSH, for becoming champions once again. We are very grateful to all the wonderful players who took part that day who helped to raise vital funds. Beating bowel cancer is a team effort that includes everyone and you’re helping us achieve a world where everybody can live longer, better lives, free from the fear of bowel cancer.

“In the 31 years since I set up the Bobby Moore Fund, we have raised over £31million and made great strides in bowel cancer research. However, while mortality rates for those diagnosed with bowel cancer have fallen by more than a third since Bobby’s death, bowel cancer remains the second most common cause of cancer death in the UK, accounting for 10% of all cancer deaths. There are around 17,000 bowel cancer deaths in the UK every year. That’s 46 every day.”
