We are delighted to announce that office technology supplier
Midshire® has renewed its sponsorship agreement with the Stockport County
Community Foundation’s School Coaching Programme for a fourth consecutive year.
The Schools Coaching Programme seeks to expand Stockport
County’s work away from Edgeley Park and out into the local community.
Run entirely by the not-for-profit Stockport County
Community Foundation, the coaching programme works with local schools to engage
children in safe, fun developmental activities around sport.
The Schools Coaching Programme works with Primary Schools in
Stockport, Tameside, and the High Peak to deliver structured sports sessions to
children of all ages and abilities. The main aim of the programme is to engage
with as many children in the community as possible, giving them access to their
local football club and other physical activities.
Stockport County players Sam Minihan, Paul Turnbull and
Manger James Gannon are part of the twenty two coaches helping deliver the
Midshire Schools Coaching Programme every week.
Dave Wardle, Stockport County Community Foundation Manager
comments: 'We are very proud to have Midshire supporting our Schools Coaching
Programme once again. As we continue to develop all of our programmes, the
sponsorship renewal comes at a great time for the Foundation.
“It’s fantastic to have the backing of such an outstanding
company, one that supports so many charitable organisations in and around
Stockport. Thank you to everyone at Midshire for their continued support once
again.”
Group Brand & Marketing Communications Manager at Sharp
Business Systems UK, Adrienne Topping says: “When it came to renewing our
sponsorship agreement with the Stockport County Community Foundation we didn’t
hesitate.
“The work the Foundation does with children in our local
communities is vital to their development in areas like teamwork, but also in
nurturing a love of sport within future generations.”
Adrienne concludes: “Midshire is now a part of Sharp
Business Systems UK, which is fantastic for our service delivery and customers;
it also means the foundation is now partnering with a local and global brand.”
The Community Foundation still have exciting opportunities
for sponsorship available for other programmes being delivered. Give the team a
