It’s been almost 2 years now we’ve sponsored Walthamstow FC, And in all honesty it’s one of the things I’m most proud of in our business. I love football, and it often upsets me that there’s an open hostility towards football and football fans, sometimes deservedly often just a result of snobbery. 

So it’s been an absolute joy to be able to partner with a club that 100% has community at its heart. Owner Lee, Chairman Andy and his son Andrzej have created an atmosphere of pride, fellowship and togetherness that has swept up an ever growing support over the past 2 years. From a few guys and their dog to a regular turnout of 100+ the club is doing great things to provide an outlet for children in vulnerable parts of the borough to have an outlet and a safe space to meet friends and learn new skills. 

Last season they won the league and got promoted for the first time in many, many years, roared on by the mighty band of ultras, the Walthamstow rabble, complete with confetti cannons, spandau ballet anthems and an absolutely giant cat banner. The atmosphere is always brilliant, friendly and supportive. If you want to experience local football and the local community at its ridiculously entertaining best. Get yourself down to wadham lodge on a Saturday. There will be singing, cold beer, kinship and maybe even the odd goal or two.
