Removing barriers. Building resilience. Changing lives.
We partner with grassroots rugby clubs across England and Wales to support young people facing adversity. We remove barriers like transport, kit, and subscription costs, and we train coaches in trauma-aware approaches, so they understand that all behaviour is a form of communication. Together, we create inclusive spaces where young people and their families find trusted adults and the chance to belong.

As part of our work to mitigate complex trauma, we often refer to ”ACEs” (Adverse Childhood Experiences). Our process looks to alleviate the stresses in a young person’s life so that together we can most effectively build resilience and confidence during their time with rugby. These films exemplify the why, how and what of star*.
