Behind

The Gin

Rob Burrow MBE and Doddie Weir OBE are sporting legends in the world of rugby – league and union – and now the friends have combined to launch a new premium gin for fans to purchase and support a cause close to their hearts.

Discover our

Sporting Connection

After memorable and successful rugby careers, both Rob and Doddie were sadly diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease (MND). Since then, they have forged a friendship born out of their support for one another. They have united to use the passion and positivity that made them rugby greats to raise awareness and seek ways to further MND research with the aim of finding a cure.

This unbelievable determination and grit have led them to launch 7&5 Charity Gin, their first partnership project. The gin has been developed by the Spirit of Harrogate, brand owners of award-winning Slingsby Gin hailing from Yorkshire, home county to Rob. Named after the combined playing numbers of Rob (7) and Doddie (5), all profits from sales of the product will go towards MND research. More importantly, every time you treat yourself to the refreshing zesty delight that defines 7&5 Charity Gin, you will hopefully think of the Foundation and how you can help.

Exlporing the

Vineyard

Sporting Wine Club already supports the My Name’5 Doddie Foundation as a wine partner. So we are more than delighted to now be involved with 7&5 Charity Gin! Its citrusy flavour pairs perfectly with Fever-Tree Mediterranean Tonic and a lemon wheel garnish. So sit back, relax and enjoy the invigorating tastes!

I’m so delighted that Rob and I have been able to work together to produce this amazing gin. Like rugby, it’s all about commitment, dedication, focus and a great team pulling together towards one aim: a world without MND. I hope you enjoy our new 7&5 Charity Gin and toast a cure to MND.
