Champions On and Off the Pitch - Proud to Support Grassroots Sport Nationwide! ⚽ 🏈

At Safer Roadworks, we are proud to support grassroots sport in the communities where we live, work and operate across the UK.

Grassroots football and rugby play a vital role in shaping young people’s lives - teaching teamwork, discipline, resilience, confidence and respect, while helping to build lifelong friendships and healthier futures. Supporting local clubs, teams and young athletes is an investment in the next generation, both on and off the pitch.

Each year, we select around 15 teams across the country to receive a variety of sponsorship packages within grassroots football and rugby, alongside supporting individual young players on their sporting journeys. Giving back to local communities and helping young people thrive through sport is something we are deeply passionate about.

As the season comes to an end, we would like to congratulate Newport Pagnell Town Football Club Under 9 Lions on an incredible year.

⚽ Season Record ⚽
Played: 24
Won: 22
Drew: 1
Lost: 1
Goals For: 123
Goals Against: 30
Clean Sheets: 9

An outstanding achievement and a true reflection of the dedication, effort and teamwork shown by every player throughout the season. Well done to all involved - players, coaches and parents alike.

This year’s sponsorship was proudly supported jointly with long-term client and company friend, Ryan Anderson, whose continued support for grassroots sport is greatly appreciated.

We look forward to continuing to support local communities and young athletes nationwide for many years to come.

Spreading Festive Cheer at Sheffield Children's NHS Foundation Trust 🎁✨

Today, our Group Managing Director, Jake Waudby, and Group Finance Director, Karl Ritchards, proudly joined our client Amey and members of their senior management team (Bryan Dixon & Adam Horrocks (Tech IOSH)) for a special visit to Sheffield Children’s Hospital. Together, we delivered a large donation of toys for young patients.

As we approach the festive period, we want to help ensure that every child has a gift to open, bringing a little brightness to families spending their holidays in hospital. Any toys not used over Christmas will remain on the wards for children throughout the year.

This initiative forms part of Safer Roadworks’ ongoing social value commitments, working collaboratively with our partners to make a meaningful, positive impact in the communities we serve. Supporting local hospitals and giving back where it matters most is something we’re honoured to do - and even better when done alongside valued clients like Amey.

Wishing all the incredible staff, patients, and families at Sheffield Children’s Hospital a warm and joyful festive season. ❤️🎄
