During these difficult and usual times, we hope to bring communities together through sports and charitable activities.

WNL (Women's Netball League) is a unique league dedicated to increasing participation of girls and women, from all walks of life, in Netball. Our aim is to encourage more women who are unable to play in traditional leagues to participate in the game of netball and to promote more widely the opportunities that have opened up for the inclusion of women from communities nationwide that wear head coverings.

WNL Birmingham will be collectively fundraising for the people of Yemen, who are facing the worst famine in over a century, displaced by war, suffering from a cholera outbreak and a recent flood, in addition to the spread of the Coronavirus.

The WNL chairperson and her son will be kicking the challenge off by attempting to cycle from Birmingham to London.

Yemen: A country on the edge of famine

Millions of people are in need of humanitarian aid with families facing ongoing armed conflict, displacement, disease and economic decline with an estimated 24 million people in need of humanitarian aid to survive - a figure so high that it is in fact the highest across the globe.

18 million people are in need of water and sanitation facilities- Over 3 million people have been left displaced by conflict.
