The London Irish Foundation vision is to become, and to be known as, a sustainable organisation that continues to successfully deliver programmes to our communities.
London Irish Foundation are delighted to have been awarded a grant to delivery the Mayor of London VRU programme. Our aims and objectives are to deliver 10 BEAT programmes and 3 holiday activity and development camps. We will look to engage with 360 young women and girls from targeted schools throughout our community.
We use the power of sport, rugby in particular, to make a lasting, positive impact on the lives of people, and to build a meaningful and sustainable legacy for sport and education across our communities.
Our key work strands are rugby development, education, community engagement and inclusion, all of which are underpinned by our core values – family, home from home, and open to all with rugby at the heart.
The Foundation’s team of people are specifically chosen for their expertise, insight, desire and strong passion to help build brighter futures through the projects they deliver.

The programme started week commencing the 25th September 2023 and will be delivered by our Foundation team.

Without the support of the London Irish Foundation the Rugby Club at The Green School for Girls would not exist as there are not enough hours in the week or personnel to run it. After all that has been built and developed this year (2023), I do hope that our journey together can continue. Just thinking that the club may not be able to take place next year is devastating. The interest, the development of skills and the rugby community that has been built in our school is a joy to behold. In truth there would be a lot of tears if I had to announce the termination of the club. (I would be in tears too).

I just wanted to drop you a line and say thank you once again for including us in your coaching scheme. I have been so impressed with the level of progress that our pupils have made over the past few weeks. Ben has been absolutely brilliant. He is totally on our pupils wavelength and has challenged and supported them in equal measure over the past few weeks. It is great to see the way he encourages and motivates the young people and he has already developed good relationships with many of the pupils he has been coaching at our school. Please pass on my thanks to him for all his efforts so far.

Honestly, Ben was fab and the girls loved his session. He was really suited to the event. Feedback from schools on the day has been nothing but positive.

I just wanted to say a BIG thank you for the sports sessions that my students had with London Irish Foundation. They really enjoyed the experience of trying different games and being part of a team. Laurisa was great with the students, motivating them to join in, try their best and have fun, which they did! Every single student gave me a very positive feedback about the sessions, how it impacted them and how good they felt afterwards – so well done!

I feel the pupils have had a positive attitude towards the sport. For most pupils it would have been the first time they have touched a rugby ball. I feel it has been a big success at Meadow High school. The pupils were able to access the sport as the coaching was specific to meet the pupils needs. Laurisa had a good relationship with all the pupils.
