Sydney Roosters forward Angus Crichton has been nominated for the 2022 Ken Stephens Community Award for his outstanding work off the field and with the community.
Angus has been an instrumental leader in building the relationship between Ronald McDonald House Randwick and the Sydney Roosters, volunteering his time both in person and via FaceTime during Covid-19 protocols.
A strong leader and mentor within the Indigenous community, Angus also worked with Indigenous student leaders and presented them with their Sydney Roosters School to Work polo shirts for the NRL Indigenous Youth Leadership Summit.
Looking to proactively seek out a way to make a positive impact on Indigenous communities with his aim to give remote communities a voice, Angus launched an official charity – The First People Project, a mentoring program for Indigenous boys boarding in prestigious Sydney High Schools.
He eagerly participates in all community-based initiatives and events, always with a smile and positive attitude, with the Eastern Suburbs Schools Community Carnival, the School to Work Campaign and Boots for Brighter Futures some examples of events Angus has embraced.
