Support your local community cricket club during the Covid-19 pandemic
During this Covid-19 pandemic, your local and community cricket club still requires maintenance and has bills to pay. Christleton Cricket Club is run by volunteers and is non profit making. Despite this, there are costs associated with running and maintaining this fabulous facility. Covid-19 means that there is ZERO revenue being generated by the club to cover our costs, so we are asking for a small voluntary pledge to help

Why it's a great idea:

An exciting opportunity to create and fund inspirational projects in your local community
A quick update... Many thanks to those who have supported Christleton Cricket Club thus far. We have actually enough to now pay for some machinery insurance and some minor repairs to our outfield mower ( a puncture repair cost us nearly £100). Although the crowdfunding suggests we have hit our target, we are in overfunding mode, which is allowed and very useful, so please do not be put off contributing or sharing with others. We are a non profit sports club run by volunteers, but still have monthly overheads - so every little helps and prevents us dipping too deep into the little emergency funds we have. Once again many thanks
Whoop, 10 people have pledged since fundraising began!
Brilliant news, thanks everyone!
