Supporting and giving back to the communities in which we live and work are at the core of our club values. Our initiatives include:
MAKE A CHANGE
During the 2021 lockdown in Gibraltar due to the COVID pandemic, local children and their families prepared themselves to undertake school work once again from home. Recognising the need that some families don’t have a laptop or computer at home for online learning the Scorpions Collective Network was formed. Under the campaign slogan MAKE A CHANGE the Sovereign Insurance Scorpions Rugby Club formed ‘the Collective’, an initiative asking people to donate their unwanted working laptops. The Scorpions Collective members included Newton Store, Rock Wallaby, Open Award Centre, Office of the Commissioner for Sustainable Development and Future Generations and the Scorpions Rugby Club.
COVID restrictions meant that our children and young people were needing to learn from home and rely on online communication and platforms. The reality was that not every child in Gibraltar had a device to access the internet for online learning offered by their schools. Club sponsors Newton Store, kindly agreed to ensure the laptops and PC’s were in good working order and with the help of the Open Award Centre, Rock Wallaby and the Commissioner for Sustainability Development and Future Generations we distributed them to those in need.
