The English Bridge Union (EBU) say:

Bridge players come together to celebrate the game of bridge, to spread the word that bridge is a wonderful game and that by working together with the Scottish Bridge Union and our partners, Cancer Research UK we can have fun as well as playing our part in helping to beat cancer.

There is a huge event on RealBridge, on Sunday 15th September
