Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page set up in memory of my wonderful dad Stuart who passed away on 21st July.

Many of you know Dad as a man who "loved his cricket". He started playing while at primary school and walked out alongside his father at the age of 10. His love for the game spanned his entire life, first as a player then coach and umpire. The last match he umpired was just 4 weeks before he died. Dad, coming from a large family, was unable to be financially supported when an opportunity presented for him to play at County level. Despite this Dad played against and with some of the best West Indies players in minor county cricket. Chance to Shine is a charity close to our hearts as a cricket loving family as it helps provide funds to enable all young people to have access to play and enjoy the game. We have set up this fundraiser in Dad's name and all donations will go directly to the Staffordshire region and in memory of Dad.

So for those wishing to donate to his memory we thank you for your support

David, Nicky and families
