Join comedian, TV host and physical disability rugby league player Adam Hills in raising vital funds to support our national disability cricket programme, Super 1s, and help more young people like Sam.
Cricket Transforms Lives
Nearly 9,000 young people with disabilities attend our inclusive and impactful cricket programmes every year.
Super 1s is our programme dedicated to empowering young people with disabilities aged 12-25. With access and inclusion at the heart of it, Super 1s provides an opportunity to have fun playing cricket with friends every week and experience competitive sport with peers.
But the programme goes beyond cricket – it helps individuals develop vital life skills that enable our young participants to realise their potential.
Help us reach 1 million young people!
Sports is a vehicle for change and nothing brings people and communities together quite like it. Yet only 1 in 4 disabled people took part in an organised activity session in the last year, and there are 1.2m young people with a disability who access sport rarely or not at all.
Every year we reach nearly 9,000 young people with disabilities across the UK, and yet over 1 million more are still not gaining access to sport and all the benefits it brings.
You can donate to the appeal, and help more young people like Sam, online now. You can also donate by phone, or you can write a cheque to the Lord’s Taverners and send it to Freepost BBC Radio 4 Appeal (please mark the back of your envelope ‘Lord’s Taverners’ if you do so).
