Reds Rising Together

Reds Rise Together: Salford Red Devils break new ground in Rugby League with community share offer  

Salford Red Devils have today launched 'Reds Rise Together' - a community share offer scheme that kickstarts the club's transition to becoming Super League's first 'legally community owned club'. 

Paul King, Managing Director, explains:

"This year we're celebrating 150 years of a club at the heart of its community. Now we're growing that community, as well as placing it at the heart of the club. The game has changed. IMG are in the business and with that comes a forward-thinking approach to how we move forward.

"For years, whenever we've been close to something, we have had to sell our best players. This year we opted to change that. Now by doing this, it allows to maintain a competitive playing squad and gives us a real chance to win the biggest prizes in the game.

"We have a fundamental belief that sport belongs to the people - not a sole person; and by doing this we're creating the opportunity for such likeminded individuals to join us and do something really special."

'Reds Rise Together' is a community share offer offering individuals the opportunity to purchase a share in Salford Red Devil's holding company - now a Community Benefit Society (CBS) - entitling them to a vote and to stand for election to the CBS board.
