Cricket Without Boundaries is not just about sustainable cricket development. Crucially it is also about using the game of cricket as a tool in the fight against the modern plague that is AIDS. Cricket without Boundaries training sessions have at their heart discussion about the disease both in terms of prevention and treatment. The charity also stands for equality of treatment for those with the disease; children and adults regardless of their status are included in coaching, games and competitions.
