Community unites to kick off RWC with fundraiser 

Event organiser and the Apothecary Licensed Eatery’s Ted Waters set up three big screens, accompanied by a buffet breakfast and bottomless bar for the Rugby World Cup opener.

Around 150 people flocked to the Howick RSA on September 9 to watch the opening match of the 2023 Rugby World Cup (RWC) between France and the All Blacks.

Event organiser and the Apothecary Licensed Eatery’s Ted Waters set up three big screens, accompanied by a buffet breakfast and bottomless bar for the opener.

Despite the All Blacks’ disappointing result, Waters says it was an awesome opportunity for the community to come together in support.

Waters says without the generous help of Barfoot and Thompson, the event wouldn’t have been possible.

The event was a good promoter for the raffle that the Apothecary is currently running, with all proceeds being donated to the New Zealand Bowel Cancer Foundation.

Waters says the foundation is a great cause and one close to his heart after his best mate Greg Holmes was first diagnosed with bowel cancer in 2010.

Among the raffle items is a 2023 signed All Blacks jersey, donated by New Zealand Rugby.

The raffle will be drawn on October 21, the day of the first semi-final at the RWC. Around $1000 has already been donated.

If you wish to purchase a raffle ticket or find out more information, contact the Apothecary Licensed Eatery on 535 9661 or visit them in store on Picton Street.
