His cross-code career included playing for Bridgend and Widnes. He also toured with the British Lions and the Great Britain rugby league teams. 

Rugby fans can come and enjoy a fun-filled evening with John and several other former Wales and British Lions players.

The dinner is at Greenmeadow Golf Club on Friday 24 April.

David Power, secretary of the Welsh Charitables, said: “Rugby fans who come along to our dinner will hear John talk about his experiences of being part of a period of time when the Welsh rugby union team lost many of its top players due to the big money being offered in league. It will be a wonderful insight into the pressures of that time of being a top player and the tempting cash offers being on the table.”
