Membership
Wooden Spoon is the children’s charity of rugby. We are a grant-making charity and fund life-changing projects across the UK & Ireland.
The best way to support us at Wooden Spoon is to become a member and join the 7,000 other people who regularly give and support us in our commitment to help all the projects that apply to us for funding.
We exist to help the 1.2 million children living with a disability, the 30% of children growing up in poverty, and the 3 million children experiencing mental health issues to live their best lives.
In the past year, through the 150 projects we’ve been able to fund, this has helped us support 60,436 children and young people living with disabilities and facing disadvantage across the UK and Ireland.
However, there are many more we want to help. Currently, we can only approve approximately 1 in 10 of the project applications that we receive.
Becoming a member couldn’t be easier, all you need to do is fill in the membership form. In addition to knowing your money is going to help children and young people with disabilities or facing disadvantage, you will also receive:
- Monthly e-Spoonews with details of campaigns and projects
- Invitations to regional events
- A welcome gift for new members – choice of Wooden Spoon tie, scarf, socks, bobble hat or pin badge
