Cricket Kindness Mission

Cricket Kindness started in Australia under the banner of the Children's Cricket Charity. Between 2016 - 2019, a belief in the power of sport to change lives, saw the equivalent of seven shipping containers of new and up-cycled cricket gear collected and redistributed to disadvantaged cricket loving communities.

Thousands of children & teenagers throughout Antigua & Barbuda, Barbados, Trinidad, Australia, Sri Lanka, Fiji, The Solomon Islands and Sierra Leone have been given the simple joy of access to equipment to play the great game of cricket!

With our founder & driving force, Tamara Lowe relocating from Sydney to England in mid 2019, the Children's Cricket Charity has scaled back Sydney operations to kit recycling on a small scale.

Work has begun to establish Cricket Kindness as a humanitarian vehicle in England to continue levelling the playing field and extending the hand of generosity.
