Enjoy a Taste of Africa with Marco Mama at Sixways

Warriors back row Marco Mama is running an exclusive charity event at Sixways on Saturday 22 April where fans will be able to enjoy a Taste of Africa.

Immerse yourself in Africa's unique culture with a variety of all-you-can-eat, culinary delights before some interactive entertainment with Drum Café, who will have everyone feeling the beat!

There will also be a contemporary African art exhibition with pieces from some of Zimbabwe's most renowned artists.

Tickets for the evening are just £45 per person or £400 for a table of ten and are available by clicking here.

All proceeds from the event and art exhibition will go towards two fantastic causes in Africa – Bhubesi Pride and Hope for the Village Child.

Bhubesi Pride spreads the word of rugby throughout schools and communities within Africa and is currently building a community centre with a rugby pitch and a netball court in Lilongwe, Malawi.

Hope for the Village Child provides support for highly-impoverished communities within northern Nigeria, and the proceeds from this event will go directly to providing calcium supplements to help prevent rickets for children in rural areas.

Mama said: “I’ve been amazed by the difference these charities have made to so many lives and feel this is a way to give something back to the continent that has given so much to me.

“The event I’m running is a great chance for fans to taste some African food and to get a feel for the rich culture Africa has to offer.

“All funds raised will be split between the two causes and will significantly change the lives of children in need.”

The evening will start at 7pm and finish at approximately 10.30pm. For more information please email marcomama1@gmail.com.
