π¬" The message within the gang of us is to say that if you've got a stoma there is still so much you can do. It's life enhancing, and watching the game today was life enhancing"
Some fabulous words from Dave Woods from @SkySportsRL following our game with @RugbyLeeds PDRL last Saturday.
Challenging outdated perceptions of what people living with stomas can achieve, and inspiring and empowering those who do, is why we play.
