The event, which will take place on Monday May, 16 at Hove Cricket Ground, is one of the largest mass participation events in the South East for people with disabilities and reinforces commitment to making cricket accessible to communities and individuals across Sussex.

Sussex’s disability day aims to promote participation in cricket through a variety of fun and innovative activities where we focus on ability, not disability. The event is open to schools, day centres, community groups and individuals.

Managing Director for the Sussex Foundation Tim Shutt is delighted to see the event return yet again this year and said: “The vision of the foundation includes ensuring opportunities to participate in cricket are genuinely open to all and there will be no better example of this than on May 16.

“Over the last six years, the event has always been well attended and has been an extremely fun, enjoyable day for all involved.”
