Harlequins Away:Harlequins 07/04/2009 17:06 Page 7 Where to stay London, being the big city that it is, makes it more difficult to get everyone staying in the same location, depending on whether you are just in town for the rugby or want to do a bit of sightseeing whilst you are here the following locations are convenient to both the ground and the city centre. Beware that there is not a great deal around the ground at night so you may want to stay elsewhere. Areas of note include Richmond, Putney, Kew Gardens, Earls Court and Kensington. There are a number of options catering to all tastes and budgets; we can recommend the following sites when selecting one for your stay. www.accorhotels.com www.hilton.com www.holidayinn.com www.hostelworld.com www.wotif.com (great for last minute bookings) Mobile phones While in the UK you can roam on any mobile network, you will never pay more than 27c p/m to receive a call and 56c p/m to make a call back home. Texts are typically 25c to send and free to receive. Like at home, the emergency number in the UK is 999 from both a payphone and your mobile. Harlequins Away:Harlequins 07/04/2009 17:06 Page 8 EU Hand luggage regulations Harlequins Away:Harlequins 07/04/2009 17:06 Page 9 The 16th man This is it. The first knock-out match of the season – winner takes it all. The team is entering the lion’s den on this occasion, taking on a Harlequins team that is on a long winning streak and will have its tail in the air. Playing in the away team’s home ground means there will be an organised support base that will be determined to neutralise the away support. Our job is to not let this happen. Happily, most Leinster supporters are seated together in the south end of the ground so we should be able to make some noise. The players feed off our energy and support so let’s give them a great start by out-singing the home team. We’ve done it before and we can do it again. Wear your colours so they can be seen. We want flags everywhere so if you have one please bring it along, bodhráns too. Shout like you’ve never shouted and sing like you’ve never sung before. We want the 2,500 of us there to look and sound like 25,000 so we can dominate the support and be the best 16th man we can be. It can make all the difference. Do yourself proud and enjoy the match.

  • Twickenham Stadium Technical Briefing Note
    Technical briefing note – Off-site hospitality locations (OLOs) 72 Welbeck Street London W1G 0AY Twickenham Stadium Tel. 020 7493 3338 Fax. 020 7491 1825 www.geraldeve.com Executive Summary 1 We have reviewed the planning history for the Off-site Licenced Operator (OLO) sites at Chase Bridge, Kneller Hall, Access Self Storage, Richmond College, All Hallows Church, Twickenham Stoop, Cardinal Vaughn playing fields, as well as the planning history for the North Car Park. 2 Planning permission exists for off-site hospitality on RFU match days at five sites. 3 Of these, two (Richmond upon Thames College and Access Self Storage) have time limited permissions, the permitted uses will end by March 2020. 4 Three (Kneller Hall, Chase Bridge school and Twickenham Stoop) have permanent planning permission for hospitality on a set number of days. 5 No planning permission has been found for the use of Cardinal Vaughan playing fields except for the temporary permission for Rugby World Cup use. 6 The position is summarised in Table 1, below. 7 Off-site corporate hospitality is highly unlikely to continue on the three sites with permanent permission, following the completion of the East Stand. This is because: 1. the RFU will no longer provide corporate hospitality tickets to the third party operators, preventing them from assembling corporate hospitality packages. Erecting marquees, etc., for corporate hospitality will not be viable if premium rates cannot be charged because a match ticket is not included in the package; 2. any alternative hospitality offer would not be licenced by the RFU and, as such, is unlikely to be attractive to corporate clients in any case; 3.

    Daniel Allen, Planning Officer, London Borough of Richmond upon Thames, Civic Centre, 44 York Street, Twickenham, TW1 3BZ. 9 December 2016 Dear Mr Allen PLANNING APPLICATION 16/2178/FUL Installation of LED floodlighting system to replace current floodlights on top of East and West stand, Twickenham Stoop Stadium, Langhorn Drive, Twickenham TW2 7SX Objection by FORCE I write in relation to the above application, on behalf of Friends of the River Crane Environment (“FORCE”). FORCE is an environmental and educational charity comprising some 500 mostly local members, committed to the protection and improvement of the environment and ecology of the River Crane valley, including the Duke of Northumberland’s River (“DNR”) between Mereway and the Thames. FORCE has a very direct interest in this application. Twickenham Stoop Stadium abuts directly onto the DNR with a frontage of some 300 metres in length on the west side of the stadium. On its east side, the stadium lands abut the public open spaces of Challenge Court and Craneford West Field, the latter of which is bounded on its south side by the River Crane. Given our direct interest, FORCE is disappointed not to have been consulted directly about this application. FORCE is also disappointed that the DNR Steering Group, which is managing the investment of some £400 000 of partnership funding to enhance the environmental and ecological value of the DNR (see below) has not been directly consulted on this application either. We note that the public consultation period is already closed, but trust that in preparing its final report and recommendation, the Council will give due regard to this submission despite its lateness.
