Wooden Spoon

Through the power of rugby every child and young person, no matter what their background has access to the same opportunities. Their aim to positively transform the lives of children and young people with a disability or facing disadvantage across the UK and Ireland through the power of rugby. They are inspired by our rugby roots. Passion, Integrity, Teamwork and Fun drive everything we do.

Wooden Spoon is the children’s charity of rugby. From sensory rooms, specialist playgrounds and sports activity areas to respite, medical and community care, we fund around 70 projects each year that support disadvantaged and disabled children. Since our founding in 1983, we’ve distributed in excess of £24 million, helping over 1 million young people.

I have been a member of the Wooden Spoons rugby team since 2010. A fantastic charity and a great team to be involved with!
