With a little help from my friends
Turfland provided turf for two episodes of With a Little Help From My Friends Kerry McFadden (at the time) "Kerry McFadden takes on the seemingly impossible task of building a playground, sensory garden and sports pitch in the grounds of Alderhey Hospital in Liverpool. She has just five days and no budget" and Jennifer Ellison. Jennifer Ellison helps the Home Start Knowsley charity group, whose aim is to help new parents for children under 5 years old, to cope with their new task as parents. Jennifer's and her friends' help is essential for the organization's new house. They need to refurbish the floor, create a training kitchen, wide playroom, a garden outside for games and BBQ, and a conservatory on the back. Without this help, Home Start have to reject all of the parents who turn to them. Will Jennifer make it in five days? And will her old friends from school be there for her?

Budweiser premiership ad campaign event
Turfland was chosen by Budweiser for their premiership ad campaign, the filming went on all day and well into the night, the footage was then superimposed into a stadium when instead of half time charity kickabout the americans decide to introduce "monster trucks" and a distraught groundsman runs onto the pitch tearing his hair out as the monster tyres proceed to rip up the pitch. Another add has the Americans suggesting 'instead of boring draws lets have injury time "multiball"' where upon the advertising hoardings flew open and canons fired footballs at the players.
