Cricket Kindness Project

Any equipment collected on the day will be available to purchase with all proceeds going to support NBCC causes, and any unsold equipment will be distributed by The Cricket Kindness Project as usual.
#LiveableNHSBursary
This game is a replacement for the cancelled game from August 2022 to raise awareness of this issue so we will be highlighting this worthy cause through this fixture.
Further Information
The game will be played at the Doug Baker Ground which is the home of the Hospital Services Cricket Club. This was a WWII Hospital and then an NHS Hospital before conversion to a housing estate which is home to a small NHS rehabilitation and out patient unit.
The club was established in 1953 so we will be playing them in their Platinum Anniversary year so it would be good if we aim to generate some funds to help them mark the occasion. They have an anniversary dinner on 14th October which Rob Franks is speaking at so if you have any raffle prizes you can donate they will be gratefully received.
Win A Kane Williamson Signed Cricket Bat
We will be offering a chance to win this bat at each game.
