Cricket without Boundaries partner with Belvoir Castle Cricket Trust

CWB and the Belvoir Trust have started what promises to be a very fruitful working relationship. The trust is headed up by Chairman Phil O'Brien and Director ex Surrey and Nottinghamshire cricketer Darren Bicknell, both of whom will be volunteering with CWB on the spring Uganda trip. The key aim of the Belvoir Trust is getting young people active and engaged in the countryside.

Ed Williams, Trustee of CWB commented

"Although the countryside of Grantham and the red mud of sub Saharan Africa might appear different worlds, there are many opportunities for the charities to work together to promote cricket, volunteering and well being."

As Darren says,

''It makes a lot of sense for Belvoir Castle Cricket Trust to link with CWB as very simply we all love our cricket and understand the role it can play in peoples' lives. It's a fantastic opportunity for me and the other volunteers to travel to Uganda in February with CWB to see another part of the world and help in some small way. "

However both charities rely on the generous giving of others, and this is certainly the case with the £300 donation from local company GXPI

Keith Williams, CEO of GXPI (and keen cricket fan!) commented

"GxPi are proud to support Darren Bicknell on his trip to Uganda with the charity Cricket Without Boundaries this spring"
