Thanks for taking the time to visit the Grit and Bear It sponsorship page. On November 18, a team of Amey employees will be pulling one of the partnership's brand new gritters through the city. Their aim is to raise as much money as possible for the BBC's Children in Need event, which takes place on the same day. Amey, working in partnership with Birmingham City Council, would be delighted if as many people came out to line the route and cheer on the team as they haul the vehicle through the city's streets. The full route will be posted here closer to the time. And, if you could find a few spare pennies to donate here for a very worthy cause, that would be great too! Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity. So please dig deep and donate now.
