Residents of Wells are gearing up to participate in the highly anticipated return of The Big Somerset Cricket Bash, hosted by St Margaret's Hospice on Sunday, 30 June.

This event promises a mix of sporting excitement and heartfelt community support at the famous Somerset County Cricket Ground.

Each participant in this unique event will enjoy a scenic 5 km walk through Taunton, a special event t-shirt, a delicious bacon sandwich or vegetarian option, and a refreshing pint of cider (or non-alcoholic alternative).

Beyond the excitement of cricket, the event serves a deeper purpose, allowing participants to walk in memory of lost loved ones and support those grappling with terminal illnesses. Mike Doyle, a current patient at the hospice's Yeovil Sunflower Centre, expressed his excitement about attending the event for the first time, focusing on enjoying the day with his family.

Tickets are available for £35 for adults and £20 for children up to 18 years, with discounts for groups of 10 or more. This makes it a perfect opportunity for a community outing or a corporate day. Secure your spot now by clicking here and join a day of community spirit and cricket in support of a noble cause.
