This weekend friends of a murdered Met Police officer and rugby coach will complete a 30-mile charity walk in his memory.
Sgt Matt Ratana was shot dead while on duty at a custody centre in Croydon, south London, on 25 September 2020. Louis De Zoysa, 26, was given a whole life term in jail for the murder.
The two day walk begins in Stroud on Friday and finishes in Cheltenham on Saturday, which would have been Sgt Ratana's 59th birthday. A charity rugby match on Sunday featuring former England internationals completes the fundraiser.
The money raised goes to The Matt Ratana Rugby Foundation which supports 800 children each week through rugby initiatives.
