We are a group of friends from a cricket club based in Lincolnshire. We are completing the challenge, fittingly on Lincolnshire Day and are raising money for two separate but equally important causes.
Fundraising pageAll the money raised will be split equally to two causes. Firstly we are raising money for Mind. We have a number of players and family members who have experienced some form of mental health in their lives recently. We all agree that through walking/exercising and being with your closest friends it is a great way to improve and maintain a stable mental state. Secondly we are also raising much needed funds for our cricket club. Unfortunately our 70 year old cricket pitch roller broke on us just before this season, meaning we were without one of the most important pieces of cricket equipment. Thankfully we have a temporary solution for this season, but require funds for our own roller going forward. Having a roller that will help us produce fantastic pitches for our senior and junior members to play on is hugely important!
