Organisers of a charity dinner and a day of six-a-side cricket hope the appearance of an international star will boost ticket sales.

Ex-England cricketer, commentator and journalist Angus Fraser will be the special guest at a post-tournament dinner at the Hawkwell House Hotel in Iffley, Oxford, to raise money for charity SpecialEffect, based in Charlbury, which helps young disabled people to enjoy computer games by adapting them to suit their needs.

Organiser Chris Tarrat, said: "The six-a-side cricket tournament will be held at Warneford Hospital, and anyone is welcome to come along and take part."

To buy tickets, or to enter a team in the event, on September 13, go to www.eventaid.org Mr Tarrat is pictured, front, with fellow cricket fans.
