Shrewsbury Town in the Community are pleased to announce its new partnership with independent pipe distributor Pipekit, as they become our latest Friend of the Community.

Friends of the Community, launched in March this year, is designed to improve links between Shrewsbury Town in the Community and local businesses to provide a simple and effective way of helping the community.  The scheme has attracted a number of supporters including Salop Leisure and Dex’s Midnight Runners, and each investment – £1,000 per annum – goes towards supporting one of Shrewsbury Town in the Community’s current projects.

Commenting on Pipekit’s involvement, the company’s Managing Director Martyn Rowlands said: “We signed up to be a member of this scheme because we loved the charity’s ethos of taking Shrewsbury Town into the heart of the community and making a difference.

“We can’t wait to see how our sponsorship is used to make a positive contribution in and around our local area, and I am looking forward to seeing first hand some of the projects and events Shrewsbury Town in the Community put on and support.”

Speaking of the new partnership, Jamie Edwards, Head of Community at Shrewsbury Town in the Community said: “We are delighted to have Pipekit on board as a Friend of The Community.  It’s great that businesses around Shropshire want to do their bit for the local community and help us as a charity in the process.

“To have the likes of Pipekit and other local businesses working with us will only help us all to continue to grow and reach out to more areas of Shropshire.”
