On the 27th May 2005, 20 RFU volunteers will
be embarking upon an expedition to the base camp of Mount Everest, where they
will attempt to break the world record for holding the highest ever game of tag
rugby. All the money raised from the expedition will go towards two important
and worthwhile charities: SPIRE and Show Racism the Red Card.
SPIRE is
the official RFU charity that assists players who have suffered permanent total
disability through rugby and is currently supporting the needs of around 115
disabled ex-players.
Show Racism the Red Card (SRTRC) is a charity which
aims to combat racism through education and the use of professional sportsmen as
role models. Footballers have shown the way by making a stand against racism and
now the RFU and players at all levels within the game of rugby are actively
involved in the campaign - vigorously supporting the aims of SRTRC.
