THE PRINCESS DIARIES ♚

7 JUNE 2023 || MAIDENHEAD RUGBY CLUB, BERKSHIRE

The Princess of Wales visited the Maidenhead Rugby Club as Patron of the Rugby Football Union in Berkshire as a part of the Shaping Us Campaign.

She met local and national male players at the Club to discuss the Shaping Us campaign, hear more about their own childhood experiences and speak about the role that community settings can play in supporting children and parents.

During the visit, Catherine joined in rugby drills on the pitch with a number of local and professional players. She then headed inside the clubhouse for a conversation around early childhood experiences, fatherhood, and the impact that settings such as local sports clubs can have in creating a network of support around those who are helping to raise children.

She was joined by Shaping Us champion, Ugo Monye who is a former England rugby professional and father of two. Other participants in the conversation included professional rugby players alongside representatives from Maidenhead RFC and Si Trower, the founder of the mental health charity Brave Mind.

Brain Mind works with rugby clubs, universities and schools to provide a national platform to help rugby clubs and schools to improve their approach to supporting mental health in their community.
