An under-11s football team in Buckinghamshire have signed a sponsorship deal with a housebuilder company.

Stoke Mandeville have penned a contract with the Aylesbury-based business, Dandara, which will see the team receive £850.

The money will go towards branded kits, and helping children in the area engage in more football-focused activities.

Scott Barlow, Manager of Stoke Mandeville Football Under 11s, said: “Since we launched in 2018, we have gone from strength to strength, giving the local community a place to come and have the freedom to play.

Rachel Lindop, Head of Sales for Dandara, added: “Stoke Mandeville Football FC is a hugely respected club in the area, and we are thrilled to be able to support what is a great sports facility for the village.

“It’s initiatives like this that play a huge role within communities and as a local developer in the area, Dandara is committed to helping maintain these vital resources so many people benefit from.”
