Goal! Local housebuilder meets football club’s appeal for kit sponsorship

Continuing its support of the communities in which it builds, leading housebuilder, Barratt Homes North East, has sponsored the brand new kit of Stockton West End football club, which is near to it’s Jubilee Gardens development in Stockton-On-Tees.

Barratt Homes has sponsored the team £500 to help fund its brand new home and away kits. To celebrate the sponsorship, Katy Peacock, Sales Manager at Jubilee Gardens, visited the team during a home game at North Shore Academy to present them with a cheque for the amount.

Paul Race, Sales Manager at Jubilee Gardens, commented: “We’re delighted that the football club are pleased with their new kits. The club is close to our development and provides a great option for residents who want to ensure their children keep active and make new friends with activities in the area. It’s always important to us that we connect and work with the communities that we build in and we wish all the best to the team - hoping that they win a lot of their games this season in their sponsored kits!”

John Easby, Coach from Stockton West End football club, said: “We are all extremely grateful to Barratt Homes’ Jubilee Gardens site for generously supporting the team this year. We rely heavily on the help from the local community and it is great that businesses such as Barratt Homes get behind clubs and groups in the areas they are building new homes. The team were over the moon to get their much needed new kit, and we’re proud to see them wearing them on the field!”
