London Wasps

Would you like to join some of the London Wasps team on a London-to-Paris cycle challenge?

Join the team for this fantastic ride, with well known players past and present.

The partnership will involve Wasps displaying Mind’s logo on their shirts, as well as supporting our fundraising activities.

Kukri Sports Founder and Group Managing Director Phil Morris, said:

"We’re really pleased to support Mind as one of our charitable organisations. Mental health is an issue of huge importance throughout society, and also an increasingly important topic in the sporting world, with more high-profile sports  people opening up about their problems with depression than ever before."

What we're doing

Mind will help London Wasps to support the psychological wellbeing of their players, by holding mental health training courses for their coaching staff and playing squad. This ties in with the work the Rugby Players’ Association is doing to promote its mental health support service for all players.

Listen to Duncan Bell speaking about his own battle with depression on the Rugby Players Association website.

Speaking about the partnership, London Wasps’ Director of Rugby Dai Young said: "In a high pressure environment such as professional rugby, positive mental health plays an important role in the lives of players and coaches. We’re very pleased to be part of this charity partnership which will allow us to raise awareness of a crucial issue."
