The Club’s funding partnership with
Nottinghamshire County Council also
detailed a specific commitment to extend the
Positive Futures Scheme to Hawtonville. A
dramatic fall in juvenile crime in Cotgrave,
where the scheme has been active for four
years, has raised the profile and reputation
of a project that was originally funded by the
Football Foundation.
“We want to be known as an organisation
that can affect change in challenging
circumstances and local authorities have
recognised that we are by supporting us in
delivering these schemes,” saidTracey.
“Hosting major matches and delivering in
the community go hand in hand. One doesn’t
happen without the other. Our mission is
to marry exceptional event delivery with
exceptional community programmes to help
safeguard the future ofTrent Bridge as aTest
MatchVenue.”
