Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In October 2011 I am travelling to Uganda to take part in a 2 week project with the UK charity Cricket without Boundaries.

 

Cricket without Boundaries is dedicated to helping, educating and developing local communities around the world through the spread and growth of cricket. Crucially, CWB also uses cricket as a tool in the fight against AIDS. CWB’s training sessions have at their heart discussion about the disease in terms of prevention, treatment and equality of treatment for those with and without the disease.

 

CWB is a fantastic charity that does amazing work in several countries in Africa. To read more about their work please visit the website - http://www.cricketwithoutboundaries.com

 

I am aiming to raise £750 for the charity to help in the provision of the programme and to pay for AIDS awareness materials and essential cricket equipment that will remain in Uganda for the benefit of the local community.

 

All the money raised will go to the charity as I will be paying for my own flights to Uganda and daily costs when I am there.

 

A donation of just £25 will pay for a kwik cricket set which will be left with the community and used in the development of cricket and the continuation of AIDS awareness work.

 

To raise money over the summer I will be walking a marathon (my knees won't allow running!), arranging two charity cricket matches and a curry night plus auctioning off lots of cool sports prizes!

 

Thank you for your support. A blog for the project will be up and operational closer to the date so I will keep you updated with how the project goes.

 

Thanks again.
