We are unable to use our wonderful three-acre field due to a natural spring which leaves our field flooded for most of the year. However we have been shortlisted in the ‘Tesco Bags of Help’ initiative to win £5,000, which will allow us to install vital drainage. The Tesco scheme, in conjunction with Groundwork, sees grants of £5,000, £2,000 and £1,000 – all raised from the 5p bag levy – awarded to outdoor community projects. We are desperate to beat two other projects to win the top grant, as second and third place prizes will not be enough to fund a permanent solution to the issue.

Voting is open in stores until February 25, with the nearest sites including Bromsgrove Express in Marlbrook, Barnt Green Express, Rubery Metro and Frankley Express.
