Our Sherwood Centre was recently invited to Mansfield Rugby Club to take part in a fun training session.
Coaches at the rugby club hosted several activities for our service users, usually based at our day centre in Mansfield Woodhouse.
The group learned how to hold and throw a rugby ball, the rules of how to play rugby and coaches even hosted a non-contact game in the sunshine.
Everyone enjoyed the game and came away from the training giggling and with smiles on their faces, according to Sherwood Centre manager Sarah.
