Vertu Motors are delighted to partner with Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club. A historic sporting institution with strong ties to the local community.

With many dealerships situated across the East Midlands, we are excited to be able to connect with a club that we know means so much to its people.

We are working to help build the profile of the club’s community and grassroots programmes. These aim to utilise cricket to make a positive impact across the East Midlands and beyond.

About Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club

Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club was officially established in 1838. Yet, it's thought that matches may have been played from as early as 1771. To this day, Nottinghamshire remains one of England's leading clubs. They have taken multiple County Championship titles and produced many international cricket stars.

Nottinghamshire play their home matches at Trent Bridge. It's a famous ground that is widely recognised as one of the best cricketing venues in the world. It has been the stage for many high-profile Test matches over the years, including the Ashes in 2013 and 2015. It's also set to host a five-day Test match for the Women's Ashes in 2023.

The value of cricket within the county of Nottinghamshire is huge, and we're proud to be a part of it.

Nurturing Future Talent

Off the pitch, Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club have a firm commitment to their local community. They have a mission to engage young people through various sporting and academic programmes.

We are delighted to work in conjunction with the club to run programmes that encourage children and teenagers to get involved in sport.

Forget Me Notts

Trent Bridge is not only an iconic sporting venue, but also an important community hub. It is used by the support group Forget Me Notts. The group helps people living with dementia, their carers, and individuals experiencing loneliness. Sessions are often held at Trent Bridge, as the venue acts as a catalyst for people to discuss their sporting memories.

We are delighted to be able to play our part in such important initiatives, alongside the Forget Me Notts group.
