The Primary Club is a cricketing charity that raises money to provide sports and recreational facilities for blind and partially sighted people. Juniors, launched in 2006, is a special branch of the Club exclusively for under 18 year olds.

How do we raise money?
Members are really important in raising funds. People who become members pay a one-off membership fee that goes directly towards the work of the Club. They also get involved in all sorts of fundraising activities from marathons to special cricket matches and some make regular donations to the Club. There are now more than 9,500 members who have donated over £2 million since the Club was formed in 1955. And members can buy all kinds of Primary Club merchandise through the website – profits from these sales also go directly towards the charity.

What does sport mean to blind people?
Sport is really important for blind and partially sighted people. Playing sport and keeping active helps them stay healthy, have fun and build their confidence. This means they are better able to tackle the problems facing them in their everyday lives. It can be difficult for blind people to play sport - the Primary Club helps by funding special equipment.
