York RLFC Player Sponsorships 2024

This season we are proud to support both teams of York RLFC with player sponsorships for the Knights and the Valkryies. Rugby aligns well with manufacturing with communication, teamwork and a desire to win being key skills in both. After recently reading a great article about how skills can be transferred (https://madeingroup.madeinthemidlands.com/news/can-rugby-players-help-tackle-the-manufacturing-skills-gap), we decided this […]

5K A Day…

Please donate here. Recent times have been hard, despite the phrase that we are all in it together, we aren’t really. Many have it much harder than others.
