Former England Rugby star Jason Robinson previews the Six Nations tournament
RUGBY legend Jason Robinson went back to school this week to help launch The Sun’s Activity For All Fund.He said: “If I can come from a council estate in one of the most deprived areas of the UK and go on to win the World Cup, imagine how many other young people can achieve great things given the right opportunities and nurture.”Jason told how his foundation would be applying for one of the 150 £1,000 grants to help with running a multi-sport summer camp.
“We are not looking for the next Jason Robinson, but getting them off the streets with something that’s fun and engaging.“Right now we are looking for funding to create holiday clubs for kids. We are hoping that a grant from The Sun and PE teacher Rob Crowther added: “The kids say these are the best PE lessons they’ve ever had, and while that’s not great for me, it shows what a brilliant opportunity it is.”
But maybe he has lost his touch a little because in a final race with 28 children, he only managed to come fifth.WE want to hear about YOUR club and the huge difference it makes for kids in your community. It follows on from our groundbreaking Footie For All Fund with Tesco, which has dished out £450,000 of grants to children’s clubs across the country.
