Canterbury Rugby Earthquake Relief Charitable Trust

Rebuilding rugby in Christchurch after the earthquake

Over the past year Christchurch has been hit by a number of major earthquakes. The February 22, 2011, earthquake was the most destructive, claiming 188 lives and causing widespread destruction in the city.

Five RWC 2011 pool phase matches and two quarter-finals planned for Christchurch needed to be relocated to other existing RWC venues.

The response of the global Rugby family was immediate and heartfelt. Messages of support and sympathy and offers of help came from all corners of the Rugby world.

The rebuilding effort continues in Christchurch. As the Rugby world focuses on New Zealand for RWC 2011 and 95,000 international supporters start to arrive in the country, it is only fitting the global rugby family continues to show its support for Christchurch.
