Old Street win England Rugby Honda Volunteer of the Year Award

FEATURED IN:

Club News

We couldn’t be prouder England Rugby and Honda decided to recognise the work we’ve been doing to try and drive diversity, equality and inclusion in the sport with a flattering award at Twickenham.

As part of the Volunteer of the Year Award, every constituency body sends through club nominations to the National Awards under three categories:

  • Unsung Hero
  • Beyond Rugby: Connecting the Community
  • Game for All

We were humbled to be handed the Game for All prize – for which so many people have contributed within the Club.

In particular, the judges acknowledged our Affiliate Membership with International Gay Rugby and work to raise funds as they seek to make the sport more inclusive; our promotion of Mental Wellbeing within the Club; and attempts to be more welcoming to players of all backgrounds to join us on and off the pitch.

It would be fantastic if any Member who’d like to be more involved in this work makes themselves known to someone on the Committee or their Captain; and equally any other club, organisation or individual from inside or outside rugby who’d like to collaborate and push some of these agenda’s together please reach out to us on email (info@oldstreetrugby.com) so we can do something.
