Derbyshire Cricket - Parkinson's Cricket

Overview

We've been invited by The Derbyshire Cricket Foundation to help them with their new accessible cricket project 'Parkinson's Cricket.' The emphasis of the sessions is on having fun and being active in a social way with all cricket-themed activities being held indoors, such as batting, fielding, throwing, and catching. Here (https://www.goodgym.org/v3/organisations/the-derbyshire-cricket-foundation) are some pictures, and a few details about what we've done on previous occasions. Volunteers are needed to help with some low level exercises and for a hot drink and chat with participants after the session finishes. You do not need to know how to play cricket to be a valued addition to helping out at one of these sessions. There is parking directly outside the building, which is all on one level and wheelchair friendly. The start time for the event is 10:45, but we meet at 10:30 to help with setting up. If you know someone who would benefit from going along to a session as a participant, you can find out more online here. (https://dcfcricket.com/2023/10/parkinsons-cricket/)
