Since 2002, the Tag Rugby Trust has worked in 8 countries around the world. Post Covid, our focus is very much in Zimbabwe. We use rugby as a vehicle to “Build Futures” through social outreach programmes in the community. Sustainability and local ownership are central pillars to our approach.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>I have now made three tours to India (all self funded). Each experience has had its differences but you cannot get away from the smiles and enjoyment of the school kids. One school commented that attendance rates improved whilst we were there.</p> <p>It was great this year (2011) to chat to one girl (young lady) who began Tag Rugy some years ago and is now an India International in contact Rugby.</p> <p>Volunteers are essential to any sucessful tour, but without equipment their job would be impossible.</p> <p>Essentials are tag belts,cones, bibs, and of course rugby balls. TRT takes equipment on each tour and leaves it behind to ensure Rugby continues to flourish prior to the next tour.</p> <p>Inevitably kit wears out and requires replacing. Also new schools come on board each year and need kitting out.</p> <p>My aim is to raise funds over a period of time to ensure there is a continual supply of equipment. Whilst my personal interest is India, TRT takes tours to other developing countries with the same agenda.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
