Reoffending rates among young men remain alarmingly high, driven by a lack of opportunity, limited skills, learned helplessness and low rates of autonomy and self control. Prison fails to address these needs, leaving young people isolated and at a high risk of reoffending. Our sports-based mentoring programmes address this by providing positive opportunities for mentorship, connection and personal development and the opportunity to help others through peer-mentorship.

Through the power of sport, particularly rugby, we empower people to thrive beyond prison by building resilience, self-discipline and a sense of belonging. We provide the tools, support and encouragement for young people to rebuild their lives through our rugby mentoring programme. Our Rugby Academy graduates become Assistant Coaches and Mentors (ACAMS), taking on trusted leadership responsibilities that strengthen both their peers and the wider prison community
