Our principle aim is to use the power of sport and the Ospreys brand to empower people within Ospreylia to make positive life choices. Ospreys in the Community will play an important part in improving many people's lives irrespective of age, ability or gender.We aim to improve lives by working in partnership with other organisations to create a wide range of innovative programmes that will be contained within our four Strategic Themes; Education, Health, Sport, and Inclusion. Why the community needs us Whilst sharing a strong relationship and forming a key part of the Ospreys Strategy, Ospreys in the Community operates on an independent basis to the professional rugby organisation. Our foundation utilises the undoubted power of the Ospreys brand and players in a positive fashion, to harness social good and make an impact in communities. Our impact on the community Ospreys in the Community engaged with over 46,000 people in our community last year becoming an established organisation that provides sustainable and enjoyable programmes that have a positive impact on the lives of Ospreylians.'Ospreys in the Community will be working to support Ospreylians so that Ospreylians support us.'
