The Derbyshire Cricket Foundation is delighted to announce that Heatons Planning Ltd has become the first official Friend of the Foundation, marking an important milestone in the Foundation's continued efforts to grow and support cricket across Derbyshire's communities.
As a respected planning consultancy with a strong reputation for delivering expert planning and development advice across the region, Heatons has demonstrated its commitment to making a positive impact beyond the business sector. By becoming the Foundation's inaugural Friend of the Foundation, the company is helping to support programmes that increase participation in cricket, improve community wellbeing, and create opportunities for people of all ages and backgrounds to engage with the game.
The Friend of the Foundation initiative has been established to bring together local businesses and organisations that share the Foundation's vision of using cricket as a force for positive change. Through their support, partners help fund projects that encourage youth participation, develop grassroots cricket, support inclusive programmes, and strengthen connections within local communities.
Speaking about partnerships, Stefanie White, Business Development Manager at Derbyshire Cricket Foundation, said:
"We are thrilled to welcome Heatong Planning Ltd as our first Friend of the Foundation. Their commitment demonstrates the important role that local businesses can play in supporting community sport and helping us expand our reach across Derbyshire. Their support will help us continue delivering impactful programmes that benefit individuals, clubs, schools, and communities throughout the county."
Managing Director, Spencer Warren from Heatons Planning Ltd added:
"We are proud to become the first Friend of the Foundation and support the excellent work being carried out by the Derbyshire Cricket Foundation. Cricket has a unique ability to bring people together, develop life skills, and strengthen communities. We look forward to working alongside the Foundation and contributing to its continued success."
The partnership signals the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the Derbyshire Cricket Foundation, with further opportunities for businesses to become involved and support the growth of cricket and community engagement across Derbyshire.
