Wooden Spoon CEO Sarah Webb believes the resounding success of this weekend's Vets Fest 22 event can help spread rugby fever across the country.
The event celebrated its second year, this time at Moseley Rugby Football Club in Birmingham on Saturday, with over 700 players – from 16 men’s and 10 women’s Vets teams across the country – coming together for a rugby tournament aiming to raise money for vulnerable children and young people.
Ahead of World Mental Health Day on 10 October, the focus of this year’s event centred around supporting mental health projects, with an estimated £1.5 million children and young people needing mental health support as a result of the pandemic.
