We need your support!
We’re calling all communities to host their own #RedforRuth event and help us turn cricket red. No matter how big or small your club is, please help us raise vital funds and awareness to support more families facing one of life’s toughest tests
Put on an event and turn your club red – however you choose to support, this summer we can turn cricket red and make a huge impact. From red kit to red stumps, decorating the pavilion or sports hall, the more creative you can be the better!
From Test match superstars at #RedforRuth to local community heroes, this summer we’re bringing the whole cricket community together
"Seeing so many groups want to take part and help make a difference is awe-inspiring, and I’m looking forward to seeing hundreds of clubs around the country turn red in support of families facing grief. However you want to get involved, it will be great to see so many people in red coming together to play cricket this summer"
Sir Alastair Cook
Supporting families facing one of life’s toughest tests
Alongside our annual #RedforRuth event at Lord's Cricket Ground, we want to appeal to grassroots, community cricket clubs and schools in every part of the country. Throughout the cricketing summer we would love your club, school or university to join our Turn Cricket Red movement in support of the Foundation.
We’ve got loads of popular fundraising ideas for all types of cricket community and our dedicated team are more than happy to support you in your planning in any way we can.
Early 2018, Ruth Strauss, wife of Sir Andrew Strauss the former England cricket captain, was diagnosed with an incurable lung cancer that affects non-smokers. Ruth died on December 29th 2018; she was 46 years old and mother to two children, then aged 10 and 13.
Whether you want to kit out the first team, or sell items to supporters, our red store has everything you need for a really special event. Order RSF t-shirts, caps and more.
