Our Social Impact Programme
Rugby League is a way of life for communities across the North of England.
It has rare access to hard-to-reach groups in some of the most deprived areas. Hosting the RLWC2021 will give the sport an even more powerful platform from which to connect with these people and improve their economic and social wellbeing.
RLWC2021 will amplify these programmes for host partners that will see a long lasting legacy developed for the sport through the InspirationALL programme.
