NATALIE COLLINS
It is with great sadness that we have to report that our friend Natalie passed away
on 19th September 2008 as the result of a road accident.

We have put the details of the funeral service on our 'Natalie' remembrance page

30th ANNIVERSARY
The club has now been in operation since 1978
and - with the exception of the Club Leader - is run entirely by volunteers
made up of friends and family of the club members, sixth-formers, college
and university students and public-spirited members of the community.

The club held its 30th Birthday Bash at Kenilworth Cricket Club in June 2008
which was attended by many of the dozens of members, helpers, carers, friends & relations
who have been involved with the club over the years
