The London Rugby League Foundation awards significant grants to Community Rugby League Clubs. Donate today so we can continue to support them!
Ahead of a big day for Rugby League in London tomorrow, we wanted to highlight that the London Rugby League Foundation has awarded grants of nearly £5,000 to a dozen Community Rugby League Clubs across London & the South-East.
This provides essential funding for these clubs to provide a) coaching, first aid and safeguarding courses for volunteers, b) development sessions and competitions in schools and c) much needed equipment.
With over 1500 players at over 20 Community Clubs there is a vibrant landscape of community rugby league in the region. But all these clubs need support in order to survive and to thrive.
All of the funding for these grants comes from the Foundation's own fundraising activities, and donations are a vital part of this.
Please make a donation today, using the link below, so we can continue to support the Community Clubs in the region and help grow the great game of rugby league in London & South-East.
