My role within the Foundation, as the Community Development Officer for Bradford, is to increase participation and retention by involving diverse communities into the programmes offered by the Foundation. I will be working closely with the Bradford community by implementing and developing initiatives that benefit the community and help them become more sustainably active in cricket.
I graduated from University of Bradford in 2019, where I studied Accounting and Finance. I then worked in the University of Bradford Students Union as the Sports and Wellbeing sabbatical officer, where I was responsible for the day-to-day management of over 35 sport clubs. I also worked closely with the senior management of the university to make the university experience better for the students.
In my free time, I play cricket in Huddersfield League and run my own cricket team in Bradford. I also play football and badminton and do voluntary coaching at my local cricket club.
