Mental health awareness and fundraising is on the cards later this month at a charity cricket event.
“The Sunshine Eights is a day of cricket, supported by local businesses since 2020,” organiser Tyler Phelps said.
“The purpose is to raise awareness and funds for issues that aren’t talked about enough
— mental health. Everyone is welcome to sign up and play.
“The format is made for good times: fast-paced games, eight overs, eight players on a team, with drinks and food available. Sunshine Brewery is sponsoring Gisborne Gold kegs, so you won’t go thirsty.
“The previous two events (formerly the Movember Friendly) raised around $9000 for the Movember Foundation. This year they’re hoping to have a local impact by also supporting charitable group #Hear4U who advocate for men’s mental health here in Tairāwhiti.
