The club has over the years successfully hosted thousands of activities under a wide range of subheadings but the home project is the first of its kind.

Naidu also serves as the very vibrant Public Relations Officer of the Berbice Cricket Board.
The project involves the Naidu family home in the village of Hampshire which was abandoned in 2015 after the family moved to Rose Hall Town following the death of his father.
