Foundation Updates from Q1!
Your Blues Foundation Quarterly update! Q1 2024
Welcome to the first quarterly update from Blues Foundation for 2024. Each quarter we will bring you a snapshot of what’s going on at our charity and the work we do.
Each week we see hundreds of young people through our two delivery mechanisms. Firstly through our community rugby and school sport programmes, and secondly through our intervention programmes. Both serve a unique purpose and drives our Blues Family values into our community.
Our charity would not be able to support the children we do without the support of sponsors, donors and the Blues Family. Thank you to those who already support us, if you think you can chance the life of a young person, please get in contact today.

1,900 young people reach through our outreach and rugby programmes between January to March.
7,700 throughput (number of unique visits to our sessions).
