This is what we’re all about
We’re about Making Rugby+ the positive difference that changes lives for good across the North East.
Our programmes combine are tailored to incorporate all these our 5 focus areas are:
Rugby Development: Our aim is to strengthen and grow the game in the region, through programmes such as Club Connections, Project Rugby and women and girls. You can discover more about our Rugby Development Programmes here.
Camps and Activities: This is all about inspiring the next generation to get active and have plenty of fun along the way. We hold camps during the holidays for boys and girls from the age of 2 upwards, designed for all skills and abilities. You can discover more about Little Falcons and camps here.
Education: Think of our education programmes as learning without limits. Our award winning HITZ programme, Tackling Insights and Futures initiatives aim to encourage those who don’t fit in with mainstream education to think differently, giving them not only qualifications but opening employability avenues and arming them with power skills to help them succeed. You can discover more about these programmes and the impact they have here.
Health and Wellbeing: From Falcons Fit, Walking Rugby and Touch Rugby, our programmes aim not only get people of all ages healthy and stay healthy but aid the development of friendship and community connectivity. Take a look at the impact Walking Rugby and Falcons Fit has had on people here.
Disability and Inclusion: It is no understatement that rugby is a sport for all. Through our Learning Disability Rugby and CAST Volunteering programmes we provide with the chance to access the game, build confidence and form the ultimate support network, establishing a sense of belonging that they otherwise would have been without.

It’s in our foundations
Our aim is to foster personal growth, encourage resilience, and nurture the potential in every person we support. Underpinning this are our values and it’s important our partners align with them to.
They are:
Positive energy – we bring the energy to everything we do.
Let’s make connections – it’s more than a handshake; we want people to feel connected to each other and to their purpose.
Up for a challenge – we’re always up for these. And not just the running and climbing mountains kind. It’s important for us that we leave no stone unturned no matter what it takes to get someone to where they want to be.
Supportive and caring – we only hire and work with people who epitomise this. We know that everyone is going through something. There is no room for judgement, and sometimes tough love is needed, but we are kind above all else.
