Why Accruvis Proudly Sponsors the Rugby Patrons Society in Kenya and the Roebucks Rugby Academy in the UK

At Accruvis, our vision has always extended beyond finance. While we dedicate ourselves to building responsible, forward-thinking investment solutions, we also believe deeply in the power of opportunity, the opportunity to learn, to grow, and to belong. That belief lies at the heart of our ongoing sponsorship of two remarkable rugby initiatives: the Rugby Patrons Society Grass Roots Programme in Kenya and the Roebucks Rugby Academy in the UK.
Investing in More Than Capital It's Investing in People
Both initiatives embody values that mirror our own corporate philosophy; teamwork, discipline, integrity, and resilience. Just as in business, sport demands dedication, preparation, and collaboration. By supporting programmes that nurture young talent, we aim to give back in a way that genuinely changes lives and communities.
Supporting Grass Roots Rugby in Kenya
Through our partnership with the Rugby Patrons Society, Accruvis helps provide access to coaching, equipment, and structured training to children and young adults in underserved communities across Kenya. The Society’s grassroots programme not only develops sporting ability but also instils confidence, teamwork, and leadership.

Over the years, the initiative has been supported by a series of high-profile fundraising evenings at the prestigious Muthaiga Country Club in Nairobi, drawing the attention of the international rugby community. These events have featured legendary figures such as Lawrence Dallaglio, World Cup winner and former England captain, and Martin Johnson, one of the most respected leaders in the sport’s history.
Their presence and personal commitment to the cause have inspired both young players and supporters alike, reinforcing the idea that rugby is more than a game; it is a global community united by shared values of respect, discipline, and perseverance.
Building Opportunity at Home with the Roebucks Rugby Academy
Closer to home, Accruvis also sponsors the Roebucks Rugby Academy, a UK-based development programme founded to provide structured, professional-level rugby training to students in the boroughs of Greenwich and Lewisham. The Academy focuses on players who have had limited opportunities to play rugby, ensuring they receive coaching, education, and personal development both on and off the pitch.
By supporting the Roebucks Academy, we aim to help create an inclusive environment where talent and ambition are nurtured, regardless of background. It’s not only about developing athletes, it’s about helping young people build character, confidence, and community.

A Shared Ethos of Growth and Responsibility
The common thread between these two programmes is simple: empowerment. Whether in London or Nairobi, the principles of teamwork and perseverance are universal. Rugby teaches respect, accountability, and resilience, qualities that build stronger individuals and, ultimately, stronger communities.
At Accruvis, we see sponsorship not as charity, but as partnership, a long-term investment in the future of the next generation. Supporting initiatives like these is our way of reinforcing the values we live by as a company: commitment, responsibility, and impact that lasts.
Looking Ahead
As the Accruvis Group continues to grow internationally, we remain committed to extending our support to initiatives that align with our core values. We calk them Accruvis CSR Initiatives. Whether through financial education, youth development, or community empowerment, we believe that every success story begins with someone being given the chance to try.
