Housebuilder supports Blackboys CofE School with football kit sponsorship

Elivia Homes has strengthened its support for the local community by sponsoring new kits for a local youth football team, ensuring dozens of young players can take to the pitch with pride.

The housebuilder, currently selling at The Meadows, has funded a full set of kits for Blackboys CofE Primary School’s team. In total, the sponsorship provides 16 outfield kits and two goalkeeper kits designed to be used by the schools’ various year groups, supporting participation across multiple ages. The kits will also be shared with the school’s girls’ team, helping to encourage greater inclusion and access to football for young female players.

In addition to the playing kits, Elivia Homes has provided branded coats and kit for the coaching staff, further reinforcing its commitment to supporting the team both on and off the pitch.

This latest initiative builds on Elivia Homes’ ongoing focus on investing in the communities in which it builds, supporting opportunities for young people to stay active, build confidence and develop teamwork skills through sport.

Claire Wright, Sales and Marketing Director for Elivia Homes Eastern, commented: “Grassroots football plays an important role in bringing communities together and giving young people the chance to grow in confidence and develop key teamwork skills. We’re proud to support these teams and initiatives, it’s always a pleasure to see so many players benefit from access to new, quality kits.”

Graham Sullivan, Headteacher at Blackboys CofE Primary School, added, “Having these kits makes a real difference, it helps create a strong sense of identity for the players, which is essential. This kit will ensure every player feels like part of the team. We’re very grateful for the support from Elivia Homes and the team will wear their new kits with pride.”

The housebuilder recently launched a development in the local area, The Meadows, an exclusive collection of 50 high quality three, four and five-bedroom homes located just three miles from the centre of Uckfield and within close reach of the High Weald National Landscape. Ideal for families, downsizers or first-time buyers alike, the development offers homeowners a rural escape from city life and provides a safe and stable community for families to flourish within.

Elivia Homes continues to look for ways to support local initiatives that make a positive and lasting impact within the community. From backing grassroots sports teams and local schools to investing in projects that bring people together, the housebuilder is committed to playing an active role beyond the homes it delivers. By supporting opportunities for young people and their families, Elivia Homes aims to help create stronger, more connected communities where people can thrive.
