As anyone who's seen Mark in the past year will no doubt be aware, he has been cultivating a magnificent piece of facial topiary, not in the pursuit of hipster chic, but rather to raise money for CASPA, a local charity helping autistic children.

Mark will be shaving his 12-month beard off on the Saturday of the ORFC beer festival. The players have donated a barrel of beer to the cause and all profits from that barrel will be donated to CASPA; there will also be donation buckets and other fundraising activities going on.

Please see the links below for information on CASPA or to donate via Mark's JustGiving page.
