LAND ROVER JOINS BHUBESI PRIDE FOUNDATION In a key strategic move for Bhubesi Pride Foundation, we are thrilled to officially announce today our partnership with Land Rover, which is arranged and managed through its sub-Sahara Africa division.

TEAM TRAINING AT MURRAYFIELD STADIUM, SUPPORTED BY SCOTTISH RUGBY

Over the last seven days, Bhubesi Pride's team members have been preparing for this year's project, 'Rugby in Africa 2014'. Thanks to both Scottish Rugby and The Bill McLaren Foundation, Bhubesi Pride was given the ideal platform of being able to utilise the fantastic facilities at Murrayfield.

Working with Scottish Rugby's Bosman du Plessis (who re-joins the group in two weeks time in Nairobi), the team engaged in both theoretical and practical sessions, developing existing knowledge and preparing each other for coaching in Africa.

Other sessions run involved expedition-specific safety, first aid work with Training Expertise and driver training, which took place yesterday.

Catch up with the team and all their pre-project preparation on our news blog

LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT

We leave you with a final thought...

For the last four years Bhubesi Pride has been striving for exceptional delivery of rugby and community supporting activities in Africa. We've developed excellent partnerships and created an expansive network and stakeholder base in ten African countries.

To improve sustainability and to help generate funds for charity-specific projects, we are close to launching our new Leadership Development and Team Building courses. Offered mainly to businesses (though not exclusively), the opportunity is set to be truly unique, highly valuable and flexibly run. Should you wish to contribute any ideas at this stage or would like to find out more, feel free to drop us a line.

Kind regards,

Richard Bennett
