Jamie Roberts has launched a testimonial year which will see him raise money for a children’s charity very close to his heart.
The former Wales and Lions centre announced his retirement from playing in July at the age of 35. Now he is to stage a series of events to celebrate his rugby career and raise money for the Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospital Charity, of which he is an ambassador.
The JR12 testimonial year will kick off on the evening of November 4 at the Principality Stadium, where he will be joined by Warren Gatland and Sam Warburton for an event hosted by Gabby Logan. That will be the day before Wales’ meeting with New Zealand at the Cardiff ground.
