The programme has seen contributions from Tony Blair, David Haye, South African stars Bryan Habana, Victor Matfield, John Smit and Schalk Burger, Phil Larder, Jason Robinson, Shaun Edwards and many more.

The current series is fronted by Will Greenwood and Scott Quinnell with Paul Boross assisting as the team psychologist and motivational coach.

SOHK uses the game of rugby and other challenging activities to teach participants life lessons and values, initially designed to allow them to take forward steps into the world of employment.

Since its inception the programme has grown to also address issues such as health, crime and citizenship.

The charity has recently established 'SOHK for Schools' which seeks to help vulnerable children realise their potential and stay engaged in education.
