It has been a very busy and successful 2011 at Old Trafford Cricket Ground, which is good news for Macmillan Cancer Support.
Over the last 12 months The Point, the ground’s conference and events centre, has raised £1,604.00 for the Macmillan charity through its wine sale donations and from the Player of Year raffle, held in the venue to celebrate the club winning the County Championship outright for the first time in 77 years.
Weddings at The Point
Potential clients can now witness The Point, at Lancashire County Cricket Club, transform from a blank canvas into an extravagant wedding reception in a stunning new film which is available to view at http://tinyurl.com/bpwr2kb.
The film, produced on behalf of catering specialists Payal Group by We-Cre8, enables potential clients to see the venue transformed from initial build up to the entrance of the blushing bride and groom.
LCCC Herb Garden
The Point at Lancashire County Cricket Club is not resting on its ‘green’ laurels. Having recently been awarded Gold Level from the Green Tourism Business Scheme, a national sustainable tourism certification scheme, The Point’s Green Team is now taking the venue’s environmental mission one-step further by growing its own produce.
A patch of land adjacent to the practise nets has been turned into a herb and vegetable garden. It is under the supervision of gardener Ronnie Jackson, who promises to give the practising cricketers their ball back if it lands in his garden.
It's not just the grass that is green at LCCC!
The Point, the eye-catching red conference and events venue at Old Trafford Cricket Ground, is now officially ‘green’ after receiving an award from the Green Tourism Business Scheme, a national sustainable tourism certification scheme for the UK.
A qualified assessor for the Green Tourism Business Scheme undertook an accreditation grading visit of the venue recently, which resulted in The Point achieving Gold level.
