respectme Saltire Schools Rugby League Tournament |
respectme was delighted to become an official partner of the Saltire Schools Rugby League Tournament in 2011. Here at respectme we recognise the importance of promoting the benefits of sport and physical activity for young people; this tournament promotes friendship, team effort and dedication. It gives young people opportunities to express themselves and thrive in an exciting sporting activity.
SAMH (The Scottish Association for Mental Health) is an official partner of the Scotland Rugby League and through its ‘Get Active’ programme this opportunity for respectme to become involved with the Saltire Schools Rugby League arose. The Saltire Schools Rugby League Tournament is a nationwide secondary Scottish schools competition for S2 – S5 boys. There are currently 24 secondary schools competing for the Saltire respectme Cup. The Tournament is broken down into regional rounds for teams to compete, before the national rounds begin. It is also has two secondary school year leagues; there is a S2/3 category and a S4/5 category.
The Tournament has also expressed an interest in creating anti-bullying policies and respectme staff will be on hand to work with the league to develop these strategies.

She's still going somewhere... |
As part of our Anti-Bullying Week activities, we launched our latest campaign, 'She's still going somewhere...'
The campaign aims to change the way adults think about the internet; to recognise it as a social space children and young people go to, and have the same concerns as you would when they go to any other place.
The campaign was heavily promoted across Scotland through media and outdoor advertising. Campaign posters were sent out to every school in Scotland and we have developed a short campaign film which can be viewed here and on our YouTube channel.
