Our mission is to enhance and enrich people's lives through the power and positive influence of Rugby League. Rugby League Cares supports Rugby League's broad community - Past, Present & Future: Past: Celebrating and protecting Rugby League's heritage and traditions. Present: Helping to take care of members of the Rugby League family, especially in times of hardship and distress. Future: Securing the future by funding, and supporting projects at the grassroots of the game. Our Work Our work takes place in four key areas of the game: Bringing together the existing Rugby League family of charities - Rugby League Foundation, RFL Benevolent Fund and RFL Heritage Trust, into one place to enhance the good work currently undertaken. We engage with and currently provide services and programmes which support approximately 600,000 people each year. Added together the value of these services equates to approximately £6,000,000. Assistance We are striving to provide assistance to 1 million people, helping them lead a more positive and healthy life through the delivery of high quality sports, educational and health based activities. Partners We also work in partnership with pro club foundations and other partners on a variety of successful projects, schemes and activities which enable their local communities to take part in programmes on education, health and increasing social inclusion.

I passionately believe that no one should be held back from playing Rugby League due to their circumstances; nor should Rugby League hold anyone back.
