fundraising – the lifeblood of charities

Your money IS changing lives

What We Do

Rugby is more than just a sport – it’s a community, a family, and a powerful force for change. At Rugby For Heroes, we harness the strength of the rugby network to support military personnel as they transition into civilian life.

Our mission is built on three core pillars: rugby coaching, career development, and mental well-being support. Through accredited coaching qualifications, tailored employment pathways, and essential mental wellbeing resources, we equip serving and former members of the Armed Forces with the tools to build a rewarding civilian life.

By fostering the same sense of camaraderie, purpose, and teamwork found on the pitch and in the military, we help veterans find their place – and their passion – beyond service.
