Our TACT North West team is proud to be sponsoring Orrell St James ARLFC, a young person’s rugby team in the Greater Manchester area.

TACT North West wanted to show our support for the local community and the aspirations of young people, so when we heard that Orrell St James ARLFC were in need of new training tops, we were delighted to help. The idea came from one of our young people, who mentioned the need to their foster carers, and we were more than happy to step in and provide the funds.

Supporting the team felt like a perfect fit for us. At TACT, we’re passionate about helping young people to thrive, both on and off the field. Sponsoring Orrell St James ARLFC wasn’t just about providing new kit; it was about showing our commitment to young people’s aspirations and celebrating the positive impact that teamwork, confidence, and belonging can have on their lives. We’re proud to play a small part in encouraging them to chase their goals and stay active in a supportive environment.

We then went to watch them play on Sunday 12^th October!

It was lovely to hear such positive feedback from both the team coach and our foster carers:

“Thank you for helping our team out, we really appreciate it”– Orrell St James ARLFC  Team Coach

“Thank you – the team look very smart and turn up looking the part thanks to our sponsor TACT” – Parent/carer

“Thanks for making  sure the boys are not only warm and dry over the winter season, but look smart it is really appreciated” – Parent/carer

“Thank you very much for not only sponsoring the team but taking the time to come and support them – we really do appreciate TACT” – Parent/Carer

We wish Orrell St James ARLFC the very best of luck!
