Commenting ahead of the Beyond Sport Summit and Awards, Rugby World Cup winner and friend of Beyond Sport, Will Greenwood, said: “Beyond Sport is a perfect illustration of how the power of sport can aid in delivering profound social change and I am looking forward for the 2015 Beyond Sport Summit and Awards' to return to London!”

Nick Keller, Founder, Beyond Sport, added: “As conflict dominates the headlines around the world, there has never been a more significant time for people to reach out and come together to tackle the ways in which sport can be used to change lives.

“In 2012 Beyond Sport stood at the heart of the Olympics, and this year we will be bringing the Summit back to London as the city comes alive for one of the world’s most admired sporting tournaments to demonstrate the power that sport has in uniting people, rather than separating them.”

The Beyond Sport Awards, supported by Sport Relief, is Beyond Sport’s flagship reward scheme which runs alongside the Summit.

More details on the Beyond Sport Summit and Awards will be announced in due course. Please save the dates of 19th to 21st October, 2015.
