Excitement. Nerves. Anticipation. This is the Learning Disability Super League

Описание: Community Integrated Care was proud to attend this year’s Magic Weekend, showcasing our multiple award-winning projects and partnerships across the sport of Rugby League. This followed the announcement that our charity will remain Official Social Care Partner of Rugby Football League for five more years.

300 players from across 16 Super League and Championship teams took to St James’ Park in Newcastle to play in front a record crowd of 68,000 across both days, through our innovative Learning Disability Super League (LDSL).

This was the first time our LDSL returned to a jam-packed stadium since 2019, and players from across the UK experienced their dreams coming true as they took to the pitch.

Community Integrated Care’s Inclusive Volunteering Programme has provided incredible opportunities for people who access care and support to participate in fulfilling matchday voluntary roles. From baking cupcakes for Rugby League players and capturing photographs on the day, to stewarding fans and supporting LDSL players, each volunteer made their mark and continued their personal development journey.

Excitingly, our charity also welcomed both past and present Trustees to the occasion, where many experienced the skills and talents of the players in person for the first time.
