The Riggo Foundation

The Riggo Foundation has been created to remember Gareth … the competitive, caring & considerate character that touched the lives of many throughout his fun filled 51 years.

When life was drawing to a close for Gareth, after a terminal diagnosis which came as an unscheduled competitor. Winning was where it was at, leaving in peace with the focus on gratitude for the richness in life that had been abundant in friendships, teams, sports, family & career.

Losing was not a phrase he used or considered in life & approaching death this remained.

Gareth felt fortunate that he had sailed through life without too many hiccups & was very aware that many people are not as privileged. His passion for helping people less fortunate and his enthusiasm for young people to flourish and be themselves despite adversity remained an unfinished task. He would have liked to have made more of an impact, if only time and resources would have allowed.

Therefore.. The RIGGO Foundation was created to continue the unfinished wishes on behalf of Gareth.

The Foundation will help young people who have experienced trauma in life. Delivering bespoke experiences to promote resilience. Whilst providing a positive impact that focuses on gratitude, allowing growth and inviting the opportunity to turn lives around and shine.
