Knights Foundation

The Knight’s Foundation is a UK based charity that provides support, sensory experiences, holidays and essential equipment to disabled or seriously ill children and their families.

Currently, the foundation supports 151 families, helping to ease the financial and everyday challenges they face.

As a proud patron of the Knights Foundation, Artisan Recruitment Group contributes through donations, helping the charity to continue its vital work.

Beyond financial contributions, we also gift our private box at Wembley, giving children and their families the chance to experience world-class hospitality at some of the biggest events in one of the most iconic stadiums in the world.

Dryy App

The Dryy app was created to help people transform their relationship with alcohol.

It encourages casual drinkers to take a break with the support of its positive and fun community.

Many people are unaware of the subtle alcoholic dependency they have, and the way it can affect their everyday life and relationships.

A short period of sobriety- supported by the Dryy app and its community- can give clarity on drinking habits and behaviours, helping to determine whether a change is needed.

Although a widespread issue, the negative effects of alcohol are particularly prominent in the Construction industry and among former elite athletes- two areas in which the Artisan Recruitment Group specialises.

By partnering the Dryy app, we help tackle the issue and provide those in need with the tools to make a positive change.

Founded in 1987 and renamed in 1994, Moneyfields FC has been a pillar of the Portsmouth community for over 38 years.

The club offers opportunities for players of all ages and genders, with teams ranging from u’7s to senior men’s and women’s squads.

Moneyfields provides a welcoming and inclusive environment where individuals can develop their skills, stay active and build meaningful connections.

 

Beyond football, the club boasts newly renovated facilities that serve as a vibrant hub for locals to gather and socialise.

As a sponsor of the club, Artisan Recruitment Group provide financial support, ensuring Moneyfields FC can continue enriching lives through sport and community engagement.

Our Equilibrium

Our Equilibrium is a company created to build a supportive community that helps former elite athletes navigate the complexities of transitioning to a life beyond sport.

When athletes, for a multitude of reasons can no longer compete, their world often feels like it falls apart. Everything they’ve worked for can seem lost, leading to a spiral of their well-being and often unemployment.

Our Equilibrium is here to address these issues by offering a comprehensive solution, providing athletes with support, re-education and then placing them into a second career.

Through Artisan Recruitment Groups Subsidiary Equilibrium Careers, we are an integral part of the Our Equilibrium company as the recruitment arm, helping former elite athletes transition into a role where they can thrive.

Professor Martin Roderick

Professor Martin Roderick is a renowned sport statistician specialising in the lives, careers, and well-being of elite athletes. Widely regarded as one of the most credible experts in his field, his research has been instrumental in shaping society’s understanding of the relentless pursuit of success, the sacrifices made along the way, and the lasting challenges athletes face both during and after their careers.

While his work spans multiple sports, Professor Roderick has a particular focus on football. His research delves into key areas such as athlete welfare, working conditions, the psychological and financial effects of a professional career, and the role of grassroots football in community development.

However, where we align most closely, is in his work on the harsh reality of becoming a professional footballer—and the trauma that follows for those who don’t.

The statistics are staggering; just 0.012% of young athletes secure a professional contract, and of those who are released, 55% develop clinical psychological issues as they struggle to adjust to life outside of football. These figures highlight the urgent need for structured support—something we are actively solving.

Our shared vision and commitment to improving the lives of young athletes have led to a partnership dedicated to driving meaningful change. Professor Roderick’s research reinforces the necessity of Equilibrium Careers, providing critical insights that help us develop targeted solutions.

Additionally, his expertise allows us to track and measure the tangible impact of our work, ensuring we continue to make a meaningful difference in the lives of elite athletes.
