Our club, founded in 1871, is one of the oldest in the world — and a vital part of our community in Thornton Heath.
Today, I’m asking for your urgent support. Click here to donate
Without immediate help, our club is at risk of closing.
We serve an area not traditionally known for rugby, yet we provide:
• Free holiday rugby camps for hundreds of children
• Pitches for local schools at reduced rates
• A thriving Minis & Juniors section (age 5–18)
• Two senior men’s teams
• A pathway that has produced players for club and country, including World Cup Winner Sadia Kabeya MBE

Next season we have plans in place to relaunch our women’s and girls’ section.

However, rising costs - utilities, coaching, maintenance, insurance; plus unavoidable major expenses (including repairs and a new power supply for our electric gates) have pushed us to the brink.

We have long term plans to redevelop part of our grounds, including renovating our former squash courts and increasing community events. But right now, we need a short term lifeline.
We must raise much needed fund to survive.
If you can donate £10, £50, £100 or more, it will help keep rugby accessible to the young people who need it most.
Please help us protect 153 years of history — and our community’s future.
