With the English cricket season coming to an end, it’s time for club players across the country to think about refreshing their kitbags.
And, while you might be done with that old pair of gloves or pads – and hoping Father Christmas will be bringing you a new bat – Bat For A Chance can give your used gear a new lease of life.
The charity takes donated kit and uses it for its projects around the world to make cricket a force for social change.
Whether it’s helping girls’ cricket in the Caribbean, bringing the sport to a new generation in South African townships, or giving refugees a chance to adapt to their new homes through the sport they love – your kit can make a difference.
“It’s always tempting just to throw out kit that’s no longer of use to you,” says Bat For A Chance founder, Will Gaffney.
“But the truth is there are so many ways in which your recycled gear can give a boost to our mission of using cricket as a tool for social change.
“Whether it finds its way elsewhere in Britain or further afield, we guarantee your donations will go to good use.”
So, instead of consigning your gear to the dustbin, let Bat For A Chance give it a new lease of life instead.
