Founder Scott Sloan featured on good news channel Beautiful News

As an avid rugby player, Scott Sloan realised the importance of community to mental health. "From a young age I learnt the power of teamwork," he says. Having experienced his own struggles with anxiety and depression, Sloan is now harnessing rugby to help vulnerable children build their resilience. 

“Young people have got the inner resources to set goals for themselves, make new friends, and manage a plan for themselves and their lives so that they succeed within and out of school,” Sloan says. A support system is key to dealing with personal challenges. Through rugby, the SOHK is changing the narrative on mental health and helping South African youth tackle their hardships head on. “
