The Raiders will be dedicating their facial-hair growth to the Ivy Trust, who provide support for parents who have experienced the devastating loss of a baby either during pregnancy or shortly after birth.

The big shave-off will be on Saturday 8 December after the home game at Footes Lane against the Henley Hawks where the Raiders will announce the Best, Worst, and Most Unexpected Efforts.
