Dear Bath Rugby Family,
As the proud CEO of Bath Rugby Foundation, I am thrilled to welcome you to a wonderful occasion that goes beyond the boundaries of a rugby match. Bath Rugby Foundation Day, featuring an electrifying clash between Bath and one of our closest rivals, also symbolises our commitment to harness the power of collective action for a cause that transcends the try line – a fair start in life for all our children and young people.
Today, as we gather at The Rec, we are not just witnessing a fierce rugby battle, we are standing together as a community dedicated to making a lasting impact on young lives. It’s more than a game; it’s a celebration of shared values, teamwork, and the unwavering belief that when we join forces, we can create positive change.
Bath Rugby Foundation is not just a charity; it’s a beacon of hope for the many thousands of children and young people in our community who face challenges that often seem insurmountable. With your support, we are breaking down barriers and providing opportunities. We believe in the transformative power of sport, education, and community engagement, and today, we invite you to be an integral part of this journey.
This Foundation Day is not just about raising awareness; it’s about showcasing the collective potential of a community that cares. Together, we can be the driving force behind brighter futures, inspiring resilience, fostering growth, and instilling a sense of belonging in every child we reach.
So, let’s cheer and let the rivalry on the pitch fuel our passion for change, and let the spirit of togetherness guide us toward a future where every child’s potential is valued.
Thank you for being a vital part of the Bath Rugby Family – together, we are changing young lives.
Lynne Fernquest
