Story
15 months ago I unexpectedly lost my father to septicaemia, so I have organised this charity cricket match in his memory in order to raise more awareness of the disease and to fund some money for the UK Sepsis Trust. My father was a great sportsman and there was nothing more enjoyable for him than to take part in or watch cricket all around the world.
Septicaemia is not recognised as a cause of death in the UK, therefore people can be unaware of the dangers of the disease. Through this cricket match, I'm hoping that people have a better general understanding of the disease and hopefully that information may save a few lives in the future.
This is an open invitation for anyone who would like to watch a good game of cricket on a hot (hopefully) summers evening with a glass of wine and to take part in raising some money for the UK Sepsis Trust in a happy environment.
The Game:
Location: Marlborough College First Team Cricket Pitch
Friday 10th June: 20/20 Limited Overs Match
Start: 18:15 Finish: 21:45 (roughly)
Old Marlburian X1 vs Sepsis Select X1
BBQ and Drinks will be provided!
