PTIFamily FORGING ALLIANCES WITH

RUGBY ICONS

We are incredibly proud to announce our first official Allies, bringing together legends of the rugby world who share our deep commitment to community, camaraderie, and purpose-driven action. The parallels between the Rugby Family and the PTIFamily are undeniable. Both are built on the foundations of resilience, shared experience, and looking out for one another long after the "game" has ended. Please join us in welcoming:

Andy Irvine

A true titan of the sport, Andy is a former Scotland and British & Irish Lion, past SRU President, and Lions Tour Manager. His leadership at the highest levels of international rugby brings an invaluable perspective on what it means to maintain a legacy while steering an organization toward the future.

Roger Baird

An Australian tourist with the British Lions and Scottish international, Roger is a dynamic entrepreneur currently leading a start-up. Beyond the boardroom, he has dedicated himself to the fight against MND, completing several fundraisers with the Grand Slam team. Roger also brings a vital passion for sustainability, ensuring that our impact is both meaningful and lasting.

Dusty Hare

Following his support for the launch of Martin Whitcombe’s book, Charlie White: Leicester Legend, Dusty officially joins our ranks. As the all-time record points scorer and a British Lion, Dusty embodies the "pinnacle of the game." His involvement reinforces our dedication to excellence and the power of mentorship.

WHY THIS MATTERS

These icons recognise that the bond within the PTI community is just as strong as the one found on the pitch. By standing with us, they are helping to bridge the gap between generations, championing modern welfare, and ensuring that our community remains agile, authentic, and collaborative. Together, we are moving beyond just reminiscing. We are building a dynamic network that supports veterans through career development, mentorship, and lifelong wellbeing.

Welcome to the team. Let’s get to work.
