ECONOMY | Every success story starts with a first step 👣

We're proud to share the journey of one young person who, with support from RUCT's Employability programme, went from leaving college and searching for opportunities to securing a Pharmacy Assistant Apprenticeship.

It's a great example of how confidence, determination and the right support can help turn ambitions into reality.

FOOTBALL DEV | Another proud milestone in our player pathway! 🔴⚪

Congratulations to Max Charlesworth (U10) and Ted Stocks (U11), who have both progressed from our Boys ETC programme into the Rotherham United Academy this season. 👏⚽

They join Mason Smith (U10) and Warren Hewitt (U10), who also made the step into the Academy earlier in the campaign.

These achievements are a testament to the hard work, dedication and commitment shown by the players, as well as the support from their families and coaches throughout their development journey❤️

RUCT | Fundraiser Shoutout!⭐

We want to give a huge shoutout to fundraiser Dan Morgan, who will be taking on a 100 mile gym challenge in support for our 50K Power Play campaign!

As a wheelchair user himself, Dan understands first-hand the barriers many disabled people face when trying to access sport and exercise, and why inclusive opportunities like Powerchair Football are so important.

Dan told us: “It’s a great opportunity for people with barriers to sport and exercise to be included.”

Thank you Dan for helping us raise awareness and funds to support disability football across South Yorkshire 🙌

Every donation helps us get closer to new competition-standard Powerchairs and creating life-changing opportunities for our players!
