Story
Pattonair is proud to be Principal Partner and Ground Sponsor for Derbyshire County Cricket Club. Five teams from Pattonair will be taking part in the T20 Walkathon event, which is raising money for a fantastic cause. The walk will be a challenge, particularly in this heat, and we would all be very grateful for any donations.
The monies raised from this event will allow the Cricket Derbyshire Foundation to tackle the issues deep at heart that affect our local community. The Derwent ward is in the top 2% of most deprived areas in the country of which sees the majority of its children receiving free school meals. We are aware during the school holidays families feel the financial burden of having to find extra money to cover the costs of those meals that they would normally receive in school.This year we are looking to raise £6,000.00 to deliver a Holiday Hunger and after school programme in the Derwent ward. These programme's look to deliver coaching multi-sport activities whilst providing a healthy balanced meal. As we look forward to celebrating the ICC World Cup Cricket this year we plan to discover and understand different countries and cultures through the exploration of taste.
