Interakt — a Newbury charity supporting young people and adults with learning, physical and sensory challenges — operates out of the Monks Lane club, with whom it has been partnered with for almost three years.

The club has also previously played a game of touch rugby with the Berkshire Brigands — the county's first mixed ability rugby team — based at Reading.
