FMB Birmingham Business Group, which represents master builders in the area, has raised £5,000 for Troop Aid towards the purchase of a people carrier.

The presentation took place at the branch annual charity ball attended by more than 120 people and held at The Village Hotel, Solihull.

Troop Aid, based in Solihull, specialises in putting together “grab bags” for injured soldiers.
