Hall-Fast has sponsored Nottingham Rugby’s Community Department for the past seven years, funding a North Nottinghamshire Community Partnership that has seen a wide ranging and broad reaching programme of rugby being delivered to thousands of youngsters in both primary and secondary schools in Mansfield, Ravenshead and the surrounding areas.

Mansfield’s Fountaindale SEN School have also benefited from this partnership over the last four years with physical activity and movement skills sessions being delivered to the students by coaches from Nottingham Rugby’s Community Department.

Hall-Fast also recently committed to a ten-year sponsorship deal with Paviors Rugby Club, a club that has embraced the award-winning Little Ruggers programme which aims to bring 2-5 year-old boys and girls into the game.
