Tue 1 March 2022
Warren Bourne
Background:
I have worked for Cambourne Parish Council for 14 years having previously worked in agriculture. I started as a groundman and progressed after 3 years to head groundsman. The team has grown from 3 to 8.
Day to day jobs:
We look after 13 football pitches, 6 play parks, 6 tennis courts, 3G pitches, tennis courts and acres of verges in Cambourne. Every day is different, and it depends on the weather or which pitches are being used next.
Biggest challenge:
Our biggest challenges are people related. This includes vandalism and graffiti on the areas we maintain. We have to manage the expectations of the public as many areas are public areas which get used for dog walking. The weather Is always a challenge especially on the heavy clay soils we are working on
