Oslo Advisory Board 2025 - Everything In Sport

Rupert was born in England and after 15 operational years in the Police Service and law school he moved to Norway.

He is Project Manager for the Women In Sport Editions in Europe.

He became a social worker for drug dependent and psychiatric patients.

He consults in employment law cases for the government.

After 10 years operational leadership in the volunteer Search and Rescue teams, he advises on conflict and trauma management for the Norwegian Red Cross.

As an advocate for the uniquely Norwegian concept of “Dugnad”, Rupert is passionate for “Sport for Social Change!”

“Dugnad translates as giving back to your community through inclusion.

In 2004 Dugnad was adopted as Norway’s national identifying word.

The word stems from the Norse language meaning – Help, good deed, and power!”

Rupert enjoys making his contribution at grass root level.

He has practiced karate for over 50 years and instructs in self-defense.
