Believe it or not, we're swapping our walking boots for cricket bats
On Mon 20 July, 3 Dads Walking take on the Hunchman Trust in a charity match at Arundel Castle CC. None of us has played for decades, so we may need all the support we can get

Just one of several groups/individuals we’ve been able to support through @53two in honour of the big man. It feels really special & im so thankful to everyone who has donated & helped make these grants possible ❤️🐝
1/3 Incredible to include @SingTheirName in our list of recipients of the #PMAGrant. The grant exists to remember our dear friend #PhilipMichaelAizlewood & is for artists/creatives who are living with or helping to share support around suicide and/or suicide bereavement. 💜💙

#MythBuster: there are people bereaved by suicide who want to share their memories of the loved one they have lost & celebrate their lives. It's a personal process unique to each individual & this should always be respected. 💙
