The event, organised by the charity CASPA, will take place on June 28 at The Bulls Head.
CASPA is an award-winning Bromley-based charity that empowers over 500 autistic individuals through life skills, self-advocacy, and inclusive community support, relying entirely on donations and fundraising.
Sky Sports presenter Michael Bridge and Aidan Magee from GB News will interview Ruddock, who is known for his stints on reality television shows like Celebrity MasterChef and I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!
Attendees can expect a night filled with entertaining anecdotes from Ruddock’s illustrious football career, which saw him play for notable clubs such as Liverpool and West Ham United.
A CASPA spokesperson said: “All proceeds from the event, including a raffle, will go towards funding two new CASPA clubs to reduce our waiting list and support even more autistic young people and their families.”
The event aims to boost the charity’s resources, helping to manage the waiting list and extend support to more families in the community.
Ticket holders will have the chance to engage with Ruddock in a Q&A session, as well as take photographs with the star.
Price per ticket is set at £85, while a table of ten can be booked for £800.
The ticket price covers dinner and a welcome drink.
As the event is for adults only, attendees must be aged 18 or over.
Tickets can be purchased via the CASPA website.
All proceeds will aid in establishing two new clubs for young people with autism.
