The former England scrum-half and skipper was one of more than 110 members and guests who attended the event at Warners Park.
It was organised by the Wooden Spoon Society - the charity of British rugby - and £6,000 was raised for good causes on the evening.
The society hopes the money will go to Eastwood's Kingsdown School for the handicapped.
