We raise awareness of AIDS through cricket to strengthen communities and fight disease

Story

In 2019 I joined the Cricket without Boundaries team to deliver projects in Masaka, Masindi and Mbarara in Uganda aimed at HIV awareness through spreading the love of cricket. Unfortunately the pandemic sadly curtailed our 2020 visit but i'm delighted to be returning this Autumn to help deliver another project to thousands of young people.

On my last trip we visited countless schools and over 5000 young boys and girls were coached by our group of volunteers. Upskilling and supporting the Ugandan coaches and ambassadors is also a vital part of our trip. In 2019 CWB trained 350 coaches and teachers across 7 countries. 

This year i plan to walk the 55k sandstone trail in just over 24 hours from Frodsham to Whitchurch and finish at my cricket club Malpas CC. Please support CWB and the great work it does to educate young people on Africa on HIV. It's an amazing cause and one i'm proud to support.

About the charity

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.
