Adam Walne -Managing Director

Purpose-driven creative leader with a strong passion for designing impactful services that create meaningful, lasting change - particularly for those who need it most.

With over a decade in elite sport as a professional rugby league player, I’ve developed the resilience, leadership, and strategic mindset needed to build high-impact organisations. 

As Managing Director of Real Life Education (RLE), I am deeply committed to empowering children and young people through a unique, holistic model of support. Relationship-first, real-life education that builds skills for life, confidence & agency.

Drawing on my own experiences, I’ve seen how positive role models and a clear sense of purpose can help you build the confidence, skills, and mindset to thrive.

Founder of Raw & Outdoor - as the founder of Raw & Outdoor, I created a health and fitness community dedicated to helping individuals reconnect with their passion for fitness and wellness. Through group training, events, outdoor adventures and personalised coaching, I designed an environment where people could enjoy the journey away from the commercialised gym setting - while challenging themselves and achieving their fitness goals.

Whether it's helping individuals improve their health and fitness or empowering young people to rewrite their futures, my mission is the same - to deliver outcomes that matter and create meaningful, lasting social value.
