Wigan Warriors Announce Houses for Homes as Major Sponsors

Super League champions Wigan Warriors have announced Houses for Homes will be their Main Club Partners for 2014.

The agreement will see the Houses for Homes logo appear on both the home and away players’ and replica shirts during the forthcoming campaign when the Warriors aim to successfully defend their Super League Title and Tetley’s Challenge Cup which were won at Old Trafford and Wembley respectively during 2013.

Houses for Homes is a national company which is based in Wigan and has grown steadily since its formation in 2002. The company supplies social and extra care housing stock and accommodation to people across the country through registered housing providers, turning houses into homes and estates into thriving communities.

Speaking about the agreement, Wigan Warriors Commercial Director Geoff Warburton said: “We are delighted to announce Houses for Homes as our new Main Club Partners for 2014. HfH is a fantastic company which provides ordinary people with opportunities for better housing and in doing so it shares a unique synergy with our own beliefs. There is no doubt this partnership is a completely different proposition to the traditional sports sponsorship models that are out there and it will make a difference to communities throughout the country.”

Ann Fairhurst, Director of Houses for Homes added: “Our CEO Phil Shanks and I have always been impressed with the club’s work and commitment to communities both in Wigan and further afield. Becoming Wigan Warriors’ Main Club Partner will hopefully continue many years into the future as one of the cornerstones of the Houses for Homes Foundation project which will see us reinvest our partnership assets to support local communities and charitable initiatives across the country.”
