So well known throughout the worlds of business, theatre, and sport, many tributes will be paid to Sir Eddie, but for Belgrave Harriers, he will go down in the club’s history as the benefactor who helped our track and field team, already on the rise, achieve extraordinary success. He was Patron of Belgrave Harriers for a quarter of a century from 1986, a period during which Belgrave became one of the strongest outfits in Europe, only outperformed by a handful of state or military squads, or those with the unlimited backing of global companies.
