Nottinghamshire Recreational Cricket

Does your club need help in improving its environmental sustainability or reducing your operating costs?

The England & Wales Cricket Board (ECB) Cricket Trust is offering grants of between £1,000-£4,000 to affiliated clubs to support investment in areas such as:

• Insulation (roof and/or walls)
• Double glazing
• Energy efficient heating systems e.g. boilers, radiators
• Solar panel electricity (photovoltaic) systems or solar water heating systems
• Energy efficient lighting
• Rain water harvesting/conservation systems including water collection systems
• Reduced tap flow devices e.g. self-closing taps
• Mobile covers, flat sheet covers, water removal equipment
• Flood defence measures
• Clubs will need contribute a minimum of 10% of the total costs of the project and organisations who benefited from this scheme in 2013 will not be eligible this year.

Please make sure that you read and understand the scheme's criteria before applying and the deadline for applications is Monday 19 May at 5.00 pm.

Applications will be selected from clubs who demonstrate the greatest need as determined by an Nottinghamshire Cricket Board panel.

Guidance notes and an application form are available for download and for further details, please email Keith Tongue at Trent Bridge.
