Fuller’s is raising funds for the Harlequins Foundation — the charitable arm of the famous rugby club — with a range of pub meals.

The Twickenham and Richmond Fuller’s pubs with the fundraising meals are:
- The Cabbage Patch: steak and London Pride pie;
- The Prince Blücher: pork ribeye with ras al hanout;
- The Turk’s Head: South Downs venison faggots; and
- The Prince’s Head: roasted pumpkin and sage ravioli.
In each case, 50p from each dish sold will go to The Harlequins Foundation.
“This is a really exciting new initiative that gives Quins fans the opportunity to support the Foundation while enjoying a trip to the pub,” said Nik Hart, head of fundraising and engagement at the Harlequins Foundation.
“They are already frequenting these fantastic Fuller’s venues and now they know that as well as great food and drink, they’re directly supporting the programmes we deliver in our local communities.
“This is just the start of our partnership and I know that we will be adding further exciting initiatives as we develop the relationship.”
Stuart Green, general manager at The Cabbage Patch, said: “This is a great way for our customers to help support a fantastic local charity. We already work well with Quins and the Foundation, but this cements our relationship in a mutually beneficial way.”
Stuart is also showing his support for the most vulnerable in society with The Cabbage Patch’s new colouring board, which has been erected outside the pub in time for World Mental Health Day on 10th October. The board, which has been designed by Stuart and local artist Ali Mac, is based on paint by numbers, with customers free to grab a coloured pen and colour a section in.
The artwork was launched last Saturday to coincide with Harlequins’ first game of the season and the annual Stomp to the Stoop. The drawing reflects some of the oldest businesses in the Twickenham area and, of course, the pub’s connection to rugby.
