Christian Lang talks to us about the amazing work that STAR Scheme are doing through Rugby, to make a real difference to the lives of young people who are suffering or have suffered adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). He explains how the Scheme came to be and how he couldn’t NOT take action. He say STAR Schemes ambition is to help clubs provide a safe, supportive and encouraging space and to help children overcome the effects of ACE’s and become important members of the Rugby, and wider, community. He discusses his own love of Rugby and how it has given him the ability to overcome adversity and that he and the STAR Scheme team are determined to expand to all Rugby playing nations around the world within 10 years. So they need your help. www.starscheme.co.uk
