Donate Equipment
Kit Reuse scheme, Steelbacks Foundation are operating a kit recycling scheme to reduce cricket kit going to landfill and promote cricket as a game for everyone by allowing kit to be accessed by those who may find cost a barrier to participation.
The aim is to receive good condition cricket kit from garages and storage spaces that have been cluttered with previously loved kit and equipment and enable others to re-use it.
We are also accepting Gray Nicholls Northamptonshire County Cricket Club Pathway clothing that is in good condition which can be passed on to individuals in the pathway that might not be able to afford the clothing.
