Connecting Communities Winner
Connecting Communities Winner - Michael Harris, Bewdley CC
Mike received an award for his outstanding work in September at the Worcestershire Cricket Foundation Cricket Collective Awards Day. It's great to see him being recognised by the ECB at the National Cricket Collective Awards.
Here's Michael's story:
Mike Harris approached the Wyre Forest Asylum Seekers Support Group (WFASSG) to offer cricket coaching sessions to asylum seekers who were accommodated in hotels in and around Bewdley. Despite facing some initial difficulties, Mike remained determined and the sessions have now become a regular occurrence.
Mike also initiated a campaign to raise donations for cricket equipment for the participants, which has been highly successful.
