We are proud to celebrate our own Kevin Wekesa, who has been named runner-up in the United Nations Kenya Person of the Year 2026 awards for his efforts in championing climate action through sport.
Through the Play Green initiative, Wekesa continues to use the power of sport to drive environmental conservation and transform communities, with over 8,000 fruit trees planted in schools and nearly one tonne of PET plastic recycled during Safari Sevens.
Congratulations, Kevin! Your commitment to making a difference beyond the rugby field makes us proud. Keep inspiring change and showing that rugby can be a force for a greener future.
