Everyone at Chance to Shine was deeply saddened to learn of the passing of our supporter, trustee and friend Anshu Jain.

Since joining the board in 2015 Anshu provided invaluable support, advice and assistance to the charity.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends at this difficult time.

Chairman Sir Donald Brydon said: “Anshu had an enormous love of cricket and understood the opportunities that playing the game brought to young children, particularly those from disadvantaged areas and minority ethnic backgrounds.  Despite his busy professional life, he was an engaged and supportive Trustee, always innovative and forward looking. We will miss him dearly.”
