Tasmanian greyhound racing clubs are deeply integrated into the local community, actively supporting a wide array of grassroots organisations and initiatives. In Hobart, the Greyhound Racing Club has embraced local sporting clubs by hosting sporting clubs challenge nights that benefit a variety of clubs across sports ranging from AFL to netball, offering both direct sponsorships and opportunities to win additional funding. Similarly, the Launceston Club enriches the community with race days tailored for aged care residents, creating memorable social experiences. Moreover, a collective initiative across Tasmanian clubs culminated in a generous $35,220 donation to the Ronald McDonald House Charity, significantly enhancing the support facilities for families of children undergoing medical treatments in Hobart. These initiatives underline the greyhound racing industry’s dedication to nurturing and giving back to the communities they operate in, reinforcing their role as key players in building and sustaining local community spirit.

A Disappointing Reality in Charity Fundraising and the Football Community As someone who passionately advocates for protecting families and futures through estate planning, I’m compelled to share my disappointment with the response we’ve received from the professional football community regarding our upcoming charity event in aid of The Loving Legacies Foundation. Estate planning is a critical service, especially for families facing complex or additional SEN needs, ensuring that their loved ones are protected and provided for. This isn’t just a luxury—it’s essential. Sadly, with the exception of two clubs, not a single club from the UK’s top four leagues has offered any support for this event. And this is coming from a sector that thrives on fan loyalty, sponsorships, ticket sales, and TV rights. Football is a powerful industry with the resources to make an enormous difference in the lives of families who need help the most. It’s disheartening to see that these resources often don't extend to supporting charitable initiatives like ours, particularly when so many families could benefit. I urge my connections within the sports and business communities to reflect on this reality and consider stepping up to support causes that will one day affect us all. Estate planning is not just about numbers; it’s about people and peace of mind for our families—something we all deserve. If you, your organisation, or any contacts would like to get involved or simply learn more, please reach out. Together, we can make a difference. #CharityFootball #EstatePlanning #LovingLegaciesFoundation #Fundraising #CommunityResponsibility

For young aspiring athletes in clubs and academies, 62% struggle to pay the fees to continue, and an increasing number of these clubs and academies can’t intervene to help cover the costs, leading to high dropout rates. For disadvantaged athletes competing at a higher level, 65% of their annual costs cannot be covered without charitable support, creating an uneven playing field. Without the support, many say their pursuit of elite sport wouldn’t be possible (44%) or that it would put increased pressure on them and their families (37%). This is where we step in with our THF Advancement Programmes to make a positive impact ✅✨ #sport #education #socialimpact
