Thanks for visiting the Cricket Yorkshire Christmas Raffle where the aim to is to raise as much money towards tackling cancer as possible and offer you all fantastic prizes in time for Christmas!

Tragically, far too many of you will know someone who has been affected by cancer in one way or another. I have lost family members and seen its devastating effect more than I’d ever expected. Research into curing all cancers remains imperative to our future.
