touraid offers free support to UK schools and clubs wishing to host activity based tours for disadvantaged children from overseas. We have a successful track record of initiating significant long term legacy benefits for these children.

touraid is now expanding its activity base from rugby to include almost any popular sport and cultural activity for boys or girls that the hosts and visiting children can participate in together. The duration of the tours is usually between 5 – 8 days.

We are supported by a number of high profile personalities and rugby players who act as our trustees, ambassadors and envoys, such as Mike Phillips, John Inverdale, Mike Catt, Sue Day, Chester Williams and Danny Cipriani.
