What Cricket Means To Me raises £5,000 for the Cricketers' Trust

Gill Smith presents David Ford and Daryl Mitchell from the Cricketers' Trust with a cheque for £5,000

We are delighted to announce that What Cricket Means To Me has reached it’s first milestone raising more than £5,000 for the Cricketers' Trust.

Launched at the Kia Oval in April, the book has received fantastic support from cricket lovers across the UK and beyond, helping us reach our first major fundraising milestone in just a few months.

The book features the stories of almost 100 people from across the cricketing world and celebrates the friendships, community and positive impact that cricket brings to so many lives.

A huge thank you goes to everyone who has bought a book, supported the project and helped spread the word, as well as NFU Mutual Vale of York, whose sponsorship of the printing costs has helped make this fundraising success possible.

We're incredibly proud to have reached £5,000 so quickly—but we're not stopping there!
