Grace and Barnaby tragically lost their lives last June in an attack in Nottingham. To honour their memories, the Webber’s and the O’Malley-Kumar’s have established charitable foundations.

Both Barnaby, a supporter of Somerset, and Grace, who was well-known in Essex, loved their cricket.

Barnaby’s foundation helps support grassroots cricket clubs by providing essential equipment and items necessary to encourage young boys and girls to engage in the sport. It also hopes to offer support to young people aged 18 and under facing difficult life challenges.

Grace’s foundations focuses on ensuring that, through sport and education, no child feels left out or lonely.

The cricketing world has come together to raise funds by auctioning a series player issued and / or signed shirts. The proceeds will be split equally between the two foundations.

This auction is in association with County Cricket Natters.
