Rational Group’s corporate giving programme, Helping Hands, has agreed to pour more money and resources into the charity Right to Play for the second successive year.

The Rational Group’s corporate giving program, Helping Hands, has announced plans to extend their relationship with the charity Right to Play for a second successive year.

Right to Play is a foundation that helps improve children’s lives in impoverished areas by teaching sport and play as mechanisms for learning. Norwegian speed skater, Johann Olav Koss, founded the cause in 1994 after discovering the appalling conditions children were exposed to after a humanitarian trip to Eritrea.

The Rational Groups’s involvement began in 2014 and had led towards the training of 2,500 volunteer coaches that has changed the lives of an estimated 185,000 children. By extending this impassioned partnership, the unified force hopes to train another 2,500 volunteers and the Rational Group will inject a further £300,000 in additional funds.
