A Cambridgeshire football club has netted a win off the pitch after securing the backing of a specialist business bank for the new season.

In a hat-trick of commitment, community and local pride, Redwood Bank has signed up to offer another season of support to Histon.

In a move that’s sure to have fans cheering from the stands, Redwood is showing it is more than just a financial institution—it’s a top scorer when it comes to supporting the local community.

Michelle Monck, Redwood Bank’s Head of Marketing, said: “We’re over the moon to be backing Histon FC again.

“As a local employer and funder of business in the East of England and across the UK, we understand the importance of contributing to local economies and communities.

“This isn’t just a sponsorship – we know how much Histon FC means to the fans, and we’re thrilled to support them every step of the way.”

The renewed partnership means Redwood’s branding will be proudly displayed on pitch-side boards and they’ll also be backing a key fixture this season.

With Redwood’s support, Histon FC are set to kick off the season on the front foot, with the funds helping to keep the team and its facilities in top shape. And with the Bank’s backing, the club is ready to tackle whatever challenges come their way.

Howard Wilkins, secretary at Histon FC said: “Redwood Bank has been a fantastic supporter of the club, and their continued commitment is a great boost for the club and the community. We’re ready to make this season one to remember.”
