Who are we?
We are a warm and welcoming cricket club that offer cricket from 5 years and up. We play at the beautiful Ashton Farm ground, one of the loveliest venues in Dorset and we are proud to host Dorset County Disability teams.
Why are we crowdfunding?
We continually try to improve our ground for our members and the community, and laying a patio that can be used is the next step.
This facility will be used by families and players and further enhance the sense of community we are trying to foster.
This is part of a wider series of ground and facility enhancements. Read more here:

Pamers Brewery Community Fund is kindly supporting this project.
How we’ll spend the money raised
Money raised will be spent on laying the patio in the new year.
Community impact
Our beautiful ground is predominantly a cricket venue and it is also used by passing cyclists and walkers as a welcome pit stop.
We will have four youth teams who play at the ground. A patio would be an ideal development for parents, supporters and guardians to come together and offer their support during matches and training.
