Blues Foundation Granted Charitable Status!

Blues Foundation is delighted to confirm that we have received full charity status and will now embark on our ambition to become one of Bedfordshire’s leading sporting charities.

Blues Foundation will be the charitable arm of Bedford Blues Rugby Club. Working across Bedfordshire and neighbouring areas, our vision is to inspire the community through the values of rugby for the advancement and promotion of positive and informed lifestyle choices.

One of the main objectives of the Blues Foundation is to develop opportunities for sport and community access into challenging demographics. Our work will target young people, develop inclusive projects for disabled people, support people in poverty or difficult circumstances and use sport and rugby to improve the conditions of peoples life.

Earning full charity status in March 2020, we have already been building momentum over the past 12 months with the delivery of some key pilot programmes, such as the MK SNAP project (link to web article) and a couple of soon to be announced partnership schemes with England Rugby and Sport England.

For more information on the opportunities to make a difference and support Blues Foundation, please email our Foundation Manager through info@bluesfoundation.org.uk to find out how to get involved.
