It‟s been a busy summer for Manchester City FC both on and off the field with many big names joining the club. Carlos Tevez, Kolo Toure and Emmanuel Adebayor to name
but a few, but ultimately the biggest signing of the summer was BCL.
BCL‟s pre-match brief was to undertake the relocation of the ticket office personnel into the club store and the 116 office based personnel from the Stadium into a new
purpose built state of the art office space, situated wihin the grounds perimeter.
The race was on for all parties involved to undertake the job in hand, ready for the beginning of the new, highly anticipated season, ensuring the forward facing image of
the club was unaltered.
The game plan was executed perfectly with a seamless transition of all personnel in-volved. All sensitive IT equipment for the clubs ticket office and support administration
team were carried out by BCL‟s specialist IT solutions division.
Paul Flowers BCL account executive reported that all departmental relocations fol-lowed a strict and confidential removal schedule which minimised disruption to the
clubs busy day to day activities.

Part of BCL „s environmental policy is to reduce our carbon footprint. As well as a monthly forum to discuss how to help save energy and re-duce wastage our staff have recently undergone a training session to
heighten awareness and see if any ideas came through.
One issue was the disposal of chipboard used in the manufacturing for
office furniture such as desks , cupboards and cabinets.
A Solution for this waste is that the chipboard is broken down , remov-ing any metallic items like screws and handles, then mix the chipboard
with other products to produce soil improvers and topsoil.
BCL have also been able to provide the Barnardo‟s childrens charity with some second hand furniture , and hope to continue this on a regular
basis.
Another charity benefiting from used furniture is The Inventors forum,
who sell on, and also distribute items to prospective inventors.
If you have any idea‟s on environmental issues please email

Hi Diane, I just wanted to thank you for making the necessary
arrangements for Spain last week. Ray and Mark were fabulous as were the guys from Home to Home. God knows how they
all worked in that heat.. I helped for 2 van loads then gave up!
It was just too hot to work for an old boy like me!
Anyway, I just wanted to say thank you for sorting that for
me.. much appreciated!
Oh, and just so you know they did get 20 mins rest I have
attached a couple of pics..
All the best Stewart.
