During the recent cricket week, Rye played Newenden and the game was played to remember George Jempson who tragically died at the age of 19 a year ago.
At the request of Stephen and Helen Jempson, the club sought to raise funds for the Rye Foodbank. The match raised £600 in donations for the Rye Foodbank plus each player provided a bag of dried goods for the Foodbank.
This week the club received a lovely card thanking those involved for the donations.
There are over 70 families receiving support from the Rye Foodbank. To find out more about how to support the Rye Foodbank go to https://ryefoodbank.com/.
