Swindon Supermarine FC Supports Samaritans - Will You?

Jez Webb, Chairman of Swindon Supermarine FC asks whether your business is able to enhance the fabulous work and the service provided by the Samaritans in Swindon?

"You might rightly ask why Swindon’s leading non-league football club Supermarine FC is in partnership with the Swindon Samaritans? Simple. Suicide is the leading cause of death for men aged 20 -49 in the UK.

We now realise that the very men who have perhaps played at our club, are currently playing or are spectators at our matches, sadly represent the target group that the Samaritans need to greater raise awareness amongst.

Swindon Supermarine is committed to help by devoting 40 meters of our pitch-side advertising wall to promote the Samaritans incredible work. With the professional help of Russell Purdy Graphic Design, we have designed a high profile pitch side board advertisement reminding everyone that the Samaritans are only a non-judgemental telephone call away.

Are you able to support the Samaritans Wall at Swindon Supermarine FC by buying an advertising board? By adding your business name, you will be providing vital support to this worthwhile cause.

Above is a picture of what your wall advertisement will look like. The investment in the Samaritans Wall will be £200 plus vat. A guaranteed 50% of this amount will go direct to the Swindon and District Samaritans. The Wall and your advertisement will be seen at every one of our Southern League matches, local cup finals and Youth Academy games for the remainder of 2014 and throughout 2015.

Please call Hayley Tarrant the fundraiser for the Swindon & District Samaritans on 07913 333139 or Steve Moore President of Swindon Supermarine FC on 07786 004833 and let them know you want to be involved. We promise you a professional and trouble free process to take part.

Your support could make all the difference to a young Swindon’s person life and well- being. Please help us if you can."
