G4S to secure England World Cup 2018 Bid Book with launch event

Event security firm G4S is to provide a specialised vehicle to take England's World Cup 2018 Bid Book to the Fifa headquarters in Switzerland.

As part of its role as an official 'Back the Bid' partner G4S will transport the book and its supporting materials (secured in 42 specially designed flight cases) overland to Zurich.

An event is to be held at Wembley Stadium on Monday (10 May) to send the Bid Book on its way with both England manager Fabio Capello and the FA chairman Lord Triesman in attendance.
