Niall Stringer Foundation

GET HELP Niall's Story Niall was a caring young lad who had time for everyone who surrounded him, always willing to be there for anyone he spent time with. A loving big brother and son amongst being a truly lovely young man. He grew up in the Southend area, and loved his rugby, music, and the local skate park and the colour Pink, inspired by the kit he wore whilst playing for Old Brentwoods RFC. In addition to playing regularly for OBRFC he was a season ticket holder at Gloucester Rugby Club, his beloved Cherry & Whites. He would follow them all over the country with his younger brother Callum and Phil, his dad. He was both a fan of rugby and incredibly talented player in his own right. Niall had an infectious personality and was loved by so many including his school mates and teachers, at King John School in Benfleet, his fellow rugby players and his skater pals. Tragically, just months before his 18th birthday, on 18th February 2022, Niall took his own life. It was a moment which brought together so many people who had met, known and love Niall and would be the moment which began the journey to The Niall Stringer Foundation being formed.
