Salop Leisure supports cricket club

Salop Leisure has donated £500 to Bomere Heath Cricket Club to help boost their crowdfunding appeal to raise £12,500 to protect their ground from chronic flooding issues.

The club has struggled with a soggy pitch for several years which has a severe impact on their playing conditions. This year's pre-season preparations were particularly hindered by adverse weather, highlighting the urgent need for improved drainage and protective measures.

Salop Leisure marketing manager Ed Glover said: "We are delighted to be able to support a local sports club in need. We believe in giving back to our community and helping to sustain the activities that bring us together.

"Sponsoring local sports teams, including Shrewsbury Town Football Club and Meole Brace Bowling Club, is a testament to our commitment to fostering community spirit and promoting healthy, active lifestyles."

Adam Vanner, chairman of Bomere Heath Cricket Club, said: "We are incredibly grateful for Salop Leisure's generous donation. This support is a significant step towards our goal of raising the £12,500 needed to protect our grounds from flooding.

"With the help of local businesses and our community, we are confident that we can reach our target and ensure the club's future is secure."
