Catastrophic life changing injuries are rare but when they do happen the effects are devastating. The physical force behind scrums and tackles can be massive. If something goes wrong a player's life can be altered forever by a split second neck or spinal injury.

The challenges facing players in these circumstances are wide ranging, and not just limited to the trauma of the injury itself. Along with losing the game they love, players can face high medical costs, painful rehabilitation, depression, loss of income and an uncertain future.

Restart rugby can help with the cost of long-term specialist medical treatment, and equipment or home improvements to assist with rehabilitation and disabled access. As well as financial help, Restart rugby are also there when players and their families need emotional support in coming to terms with the shock and implications of a sudden life changing injury.
