Hi everybody, thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In October I will be volunteering my services to the charity 'Cricket Without Boundaries' in Kenya. Cricket Without Boundaries is a UK based charity dedicated to helping, educating and developing local communities around the World through the spread and growth of cricket. It is also about personal empowerment, both for adults and for children. The Charity uses the sport to help develop personal skills ranging from basic teamwork to self-discipline and leadership.

The Charity's 3 main goals are:

• To spread cricket through coaching children and teaching adults how to coach; and
• To link the sport to HIV/AIDS awareness and incorporate these messages into coaching sessions.
• To bring together and empower local communities through cricket.

In 2007, 22 million Sub-Saharan Africans suffered from HIV, with 2 million Adult and Child Deaths from AIDS.

The link between sport (particularly cricket) and HIV/AIDS is not obvious to everyone. However, sports coaches are in a unique position to impart a message of staying healthy and doing so within a fun and trusting environment.

Therefore, it is essential that charities such as this exist to help improve the lives of those most vulnerable - helping to put smiles on the faces of children across the globe.

Every penny will help support this great charity, so please donate!

Thank you
