Yes,it sounds really good, jim. Could we have regular feedback from this, perhaps how-goes-its during the season from the Crawley, Moulescoomb and Whitehawk progammes?

Good to see the emphasis is on Crawley. For example, the town has by far the largest Asian population in the County which the Club could tap in to. Below is an interesting table looking at the percentages of different ethnic Sussex minorities. censusbulletin_ethnicity.pdf (312.92 KB) |

Below is an interesting table looking at the percentages of different ethnic Sussex minorities. Well that's true, s and f, but I think the driver is more likely to be using cricket and recreational participation for young people as a way of addressing issues of worklessness and deprivation that might otherwise create a syndrome of crime and low self-esteem. Thus East Brighton and Moulsecoomb and Bevendean have the highest claimant counts (all working-age benefits) of wards in Brighton, both over 2000 on the last available count. The total claimant count for all of Crawley's wards is over 7000. The other area I would expect to see some sort of initiative taking place in is Hastings, where Central St Leonards, Castle, Hollington and Gensing all have counts of other 1000. Ethnicity doesn't have quite the same effect, largely because, as you pointed out, the highest BME concentration in Sussex is in Crawley. |
