See #Try4Matt for more Thank you gifts Thank you to all our generous donors who are helping deliver Matt's legacy. Thank you especially to Akuma Sports for designing and producing memorial shirts for us to give away to donors in gratitude for their generosity. We are delighted to be sending out thank you gifts, both real and virtual shirts which we hope will be treasured, and used for further activities in his memory. Matt's Legacy The first projects to help young men and women in the UK and New Zealand are being established with the support of Rugby Legends in both countries. These will focus on developing and maintaining positive outcomes for young people who, beyond rugby, have substantial negative pressures in their lives. By sharing the "Whanau" the Matt so fiercely espoused, the Foundation will share his values and work for the benefit of hundreds of young people. It's not too late to pull on a shirt too.
