We are seeking emergency funding to offset loss of income due to Government lockdown measures. Without this funding, we will be unable to resume activities when the lockdown is lifted.
Due to Government lockdown measures, our club has been closed since March 2020. As such, we have lost all our income streams via membership fees, fundraising events etc. We are in severe financial difficulty without our regular income streams. Our ground needs regular maintenance, without which we will not be able to resume any cricket if the lockdown is lifted before the end of the season.
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
This project will help pay for our ground's maintenance and ensure that we can provide members from the local community the facility to play cricket when the lockdown is lifted.

VolunteerWalthamstow has a cricket club in its present location since 1862, serving the local community and providing recreational facilities for local residents. The club is located in an area of high social deprivation facing various challenges and is run entirely by volunteers, relying on membership subscriptions, fundraising and donations for revenue.
The vast majority of the club’s members live within walking distance and there is a lack of access to any similar facilities. The club is keen to maintain and expand membership from the local community, thus increasing the level of participation in sporting activity.
Walthamstow Cricket Club has supported a range of initiatives to encourage residents of all ages and communities to participate in cricket, all of which have resulted in on-going participation. The club has a rich history of providing cricket for the local youth in an area of high social deprivation, working with schools and community groups.
