About CART: CART researchs and documents all aspects of the British Resistance movement in World War Two. It's findings are published on this website.

CART is non profit making and has no financial support from any company. It is run by volunteers and is funded by donations and the revenue it makes from the sale of a DVD etc.

Conception

The Coleshill Auxiliary Research Team was set up in June 2009 by Tom Sykes after he was informed about Coleshill and its wartime involvement. Tom set up a website as it seemed the easiest way to collate the information he was finding out.

Tom is a marketing man so he knew the site would soon attract attention but had no idea just how big the project would become.

Since CART's birth in June 2009 the website has seen over 55,000 unique visitors and has attracted TV, Radio and national press attention and the group has many expert members. Most of these are authors on the subject or have a direct relation to a member of the Auxiliary Units.
