Situation
Young people in the UK and around the world face many different challenges. Through our work we seek to solve the following problems: Lack of equity of access to sport, particularly cricket. Social issues endemic to each area of work eg-refugees struggling to integrate, children facing gang violence, girls facing domestic abuse. Lack of life opportunities for young people in deprived areas.
Solution
We change lives by harnessing the transformative power of cricket. We provide free coaching and match play to empower boys and girls to reach their full potential in the game, to unite and inspire communities, and to promote physical and mental wellbeing. We provide holistic support via our Cricket+ programme enabling players to supplement their development beyond cricket and enhance their life opportunities. It encompasses anything from mental health support to gender-based violence education.
