Our new community, sports and education hub is nearing completion, but we need YOUR help!
So we are launching a public appeal to raise the last £50,000 and get us over the line.

The hub, at Belvoir Cricket Ground, Knipton, will be a vital asset for everyone in the Vale of Belvoir for generations to come.
It will super-charge the work of our charity, inspiring thousands of children to lead active, healthy lives through sport and countryside education.
It will give Belvoir Cricket Club a home worthy of its history and future.
And crucially it will also be open to the local community for activities and events, helping to tackle rural isolation and disadvantage.
Put simply, ‘Our home is your home’.
Darren Bicknell, chief executive of BEST, said: “What stands before us is not just a building – it is a commitment.
“A commitment to our children, families, volunteers, the cricket club, and to every community member who deserves a safe and warm place to gather, learn, play and belong.”
To open the doors of the hub this autumn, fully fitted and ready for the community, we must raise the final £50,000.
This sum will complete the interior, fit out the community spaces, and ensure the building is accessible, welcoming and ready for year-round use.
Every single contribution – whether £10 or £10,000 – moves us a step closer.
And your support will have a direct, visible, lasting impact. Thank you!
