The Welsh Rugby Charitable Trust was established in 1972 to help players who have been severely injured while playing rugby.

The Trust’s principal aim is to enhance the quality of life of players who have suffered terrible injuries. It strives to offer practical, educational and social support from the earliest possible moment which may be whilst in hospital or at home. Support can include significant house adaptations, wheelchairs and specially adapted cars to restore mobility and independence. The Trust has also offered financial support towards rehabilitation, counselling, career advice, educational opportunities and retraining. The Trust is currently supporting a number of men and women, on a long-term basis who have been severely injured playing rugby.
