Are a cricket club in the south of Lincoln offering competitive, social and junior cricket for anyone from 5 years of age upwards who wishes to join the club.

They accept people from anywhere but predominantly members are from the Birchwood, Hartsholme and Boultham areas of Lincoln and postcode LN6 area.

Last season they had 60+ male and female adults and 150+ under 18s (including exactly 50 girls) playing at the club, outdoors in the Summer and indoors in the Winter.

They think everyone should get the chance to play cricket and recently they were awarded the status of "Disability Champion Cricket Club" one of three in Lincolnshire.

So far they have run a programme for 5 to 11 year olds which now also runs 9 to 30 January and in the New Year start "Super Ones" for 12 - 25 year old though they can be flexible about the upper age limit.

We’re starting softball cricket for Primary school age SEN children - boys and girls on Thursdays 5.30pm - 6.30pm.

Starting 10 October 2024 and it’s at the Moorland Community Centre, Moorland Avenue, Lincoln LN6 7NH.

It’s free of charge and we hope to go right through to the end of March 2025 with a break around Christmas and the New Year.

Get back to me if your youngster can attend or if you have any questions.

Hope Meadows Equine Assisted Recovery CIC is a community interest company offering equine assisted therapies and activities to support the emotional well-being and mental health of children and adults living in Lincoln, Hykeham, and the surrounding areas.
The organisation is based on conversations with people in these communities, rooted in what would help them to live well and build fulfilling lives.

At Hope Meadows, they believe that there is a unique power in building a meaningful relationship with horses. They are keen to make these special animals accessible to those in our local community who might need them.
Most of the sessions take place on the ground, but they also offer therapeutic horse riding. Being around horses can help people find a sense of calm that allows us to process thoughts and feelings, sometimes without even saying a word.

Within the team they have staff who have significant experience of working with SEND young people. This allows most young people to be able to access the therapy, activities and ridden programme. Part of the offering provides a free support group for parent carers each week, as well as a free activity group for young adults with additional needs.
They are passionate about keeping the sessions affordable and they usually have spaces available for free or subsidised sessions for adults. No experience or referral is necessary, and they are open to everyone.

Working with audiences at the Hub; in schools; and community and care settings across the District and County, the Hub dance programme provides creative opportunities for participation and performance on a regular basis, ensuring a varied high quality mix of contemporary offerings that are inclusive, accessible, affordable and always forward thinking.
