New Hope Global delivered a successful Community Family Cricket Day at Aston Park in partnership with Active Wellbeing Society. This event’s purpose is to NHG’s commitment to:
Getting communities together
Raising awareness and working to eliminate health and sports inequalities in BAME Communities
Promoting positive relationships between our diverse communities
Encouraging social interaction and reduction of loneliness
Raising awareness of sports not often taken up by women and BAME communities
We consider that an inclusive family-oriented sport and social event for the entire community in the area is one of the best ways of encouraging all these strands and bringing everyone together for a day of fun.
The family friendly match was well attended by women and children and successful and was oversubscribed in terms of the team participant that took part. We hope that next year the Community Family Cricket Day will be even bigger!
Families enjoyed the day and thanked New Hope for arranging an activity during half-term, they liked taking part in the sports with their children. All participants received trophies and medals for taking part.
