Ikram Butt

Dr Ikram Butt made history by becoming the first British Muslim to represent England at either code of rugby. He set up the South Asia Bulls and the British Asian Rugby Association (BARA), with the aim of encouraging more young people, particularly Asians, to participate in sport and benefit from the values it instils. He’s also an ambassador for Sport Campaign Against Racism (SCAR) and the British Asian Trust. Today, as a social activist, he is actively involved in speaking out for those who face oppression in all its forms.
