Official Partnerships

Over the years we have worked with a wide variety of Official Charity Partners. For the 2025/26 season we are delighted to team up with children's grief service HopeSpace, who offer free, in-person listening support service for young people and their families who are grieving the loss of a loved one.

Full information about HopeSpace and the work that they do can be found below.

Previously Connacht Rugby have teamed up with the likes of Galway Hospice, Ability West and Croí.

Supporters may also remember the limited edition 'Heroes' jersey, which honoured the Heroes in our community who helped the most vulnerable during the COVID-19 pandemic. The jersey was sold out in record time and €27,000 was raised for ALONE as well as the Hospices.

About HopeSpace

HopeSpace is a Galway-based Charity offering a free, in-person listening support service for children, young people and their families throughout Connacht, who are grieving the loss of a loved one.

Through one-to-one sessions, HopeSpace provides a safe, compassionate space where young people can express their emotions and begin to heal.

The partnership will see Connacht Rugby and HopeSpace work together to raise awareness of the impact of childhood bereavement on families, promote the importance of mental wellbeing and generate vital funds to support HopeSpace’s work across the province.
