After years of neglect by the relevant authorities and trustees of this famous and much loved old ground and Additionally with the threat of development on this Greenfield site the local community decided to do something about it.
With absolutely no support from the council an action group was founded by local resident Aaron Lambert in 2019. This group evolved into the TV Harrison Sports Ground Association. Now the ground has children playing on it in a safe environment and regular football matches are held, but there is much more to be done
