Bridge Trust Society trusts Charterhouse
As founder members of the Birmingham AFA, the Handsworth Grammar School Old Boys Football Club play in the AFA premier division, whilst the Bridge Trust Old Boys Cricket Club also play on the ground in the Warwickshire Cricket League.
Not only do the Society's own teams use the ground, facilities are also available to hire to local community clubs. As an organisation, the BTS have virtually no money so rely on grants to fund changes, purchases or improvements. Philip picks up the story, "We discovered the SITA Trust who support community and environmental improvement projects through the Landfill Communities Fund. We made an application for funds to improve our range of machinery and were kindly awarded £30,000!"

"The Multi-Sport was the obvious choice to keep our pitches in excellent condition," says Philip "It's used after every game. As the name suggests, it came with a slitter, tines, roller and brush mounted on the machine meaning in one pass we are using multiple tools to help ensure our pitches are level and in the best condition they can be. It's exceptionally easy to use, the 3 point linkage means it's simple and quick to hook up to the tractor and off you go. It offers us the versatility and efficiency we need for our team of volunteers."
