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>I am trying to raise money for the Tag Rugby Trust tour to Uganda in July 2011 through a number of activities&nbsp;including a half marathon walk round the Five Valleys of stroud.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>The trust is really&nbsp;fantastic and has helped the lives of over 30,000 children - boys and girls - in the UK, India, Mexico, Romania and East Africa.&nbsp;&nbsp;On tour I plan to:</p> <p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>Help introduce children to the game of Tag Rugby, and also Netball in a number of schools and orphanages</strong></p> <p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><strong>Visit these schools and orphanages to distribute&nbsp;the books I won at my school (and any others I collect).&nbsp; I will be spending time in the classroom helping the children with their reading too.</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Any extra money raised will go toward a&nbsp;great project to&nbsp;bring a rugby club back to life after 40 years of inactivity - the Mbale Elephants in Uganda.&nbsp;&nbsp;The plan is to build&nbsp;a new community and club house in 2012 which will be available to&nbsp;the widest possible&nbsp;section of the local community for educational and social activities, as well as rugby and netball.&nbsp;Visit <a href="http://www.tagrugbytrust.co.uk">www.tagrugbytrust.co.uk</a> to find out more about the work of the trust.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>So please, please dig deep and help me raise as much money as possible!</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>thank you - love Isabella&nbsp;xx</p>
