Urgent help needed at the ground with major concreting project

Many supporters will be aware that Broadhurst Park has large expanses of the ground with a temporary stoned surface finish. Our proposal to complete this stoned area with a bound surface has latterly been rejected by the authorities as insufficient and they have requested an improved finish of either concrete or tarmac. This work needs to be resurfaced before our game against Wrexham.

This task comes with both financial and time constraints. Employing contractors is obviously an option but this will cost funds that we can ill afford at this time. Doing it ourselves with the help of club volunteers will result in a significant cost saving hence this ’call to arms’.

We need people who are physically fit, preferably with experience of the following:

- Moving/barrowing stone and concrete
- Placing and compacting concrete
- Tamping and finishing concrete

We expect that the start date for this work will be mid to late next week (from 22 July onwards) with the possibility of working the weekend. If you are in a position to help with this work for one day or more then please contact Peter Shaw at petershaw@fc-utd.co.uk or call the office on 0161 769 2005.
