Hide AdAdam Etheridge, Finance Officer at Melton Town FC, said: “We’re grateful to Bellway for sponsoring our club’s first team. For a large company such as Bellway to get involved in a local town football club like ours is absolutely massive for the club.
“This donation will have a lasting impact on our players and allow us to fund the costs of new training tops next season for the whole team. Training forms a vital part of our team’s development and preparedness for matchdays, so for the boys to be kitted out in new training tops next season will really make them look the part and set them up for matches.
“The whole team and I would like to thank Bellway for deciding to donate to our club, and for taking a genuine interest in helping us.”
