Stoneacre Properties - supporting the<br />
North Leeds Community!<br />
A few years ago, Stoneacre Properties established a<br />
community fund aimed at helping community causes in the<br />
North Leeds Branch area. Managing Director, Ben Jacobs<br />
said at the time, this was in response to the warm welcome<br />
the estate agency had received since opening in Chapel<br />
Allerton.<br />
“We were delighted by the welcome we initially received in<br />
the North Leeds community and hope our community fund<br />
can continually contribute to events that not only benefit our<br />
neighbours but help us to get to know them better at all times.<br />
Stoneacre sign sponsorship deal with New<br />
Rover Cricket Club<br />
When Stoneacre Properties’ MD, Ben Jacobs, was asked<br />
by New Rover Cricket Club – based at Adel, Leeds - if<br />
Stoneacre would consider sponsorship there was no<br />
hesitation: -<br />
Says Ben,<br />
“New Rover is a very successful cricket club with a long history<br />
of winning ways so we’re looking forward very much to help with<br />
further successes...”<br />
Club Vice-Chairman Michael Richmond says the club was<br />
founded in 1934 and originally played on Roundhay Park’s<br />
Soldiers’ Field until Michael’s father bought their present<br />
ground: -<br />
“Under the careful management of groundsman Keith Boyce<br />
–the former Yorkshire CC groundsman – the new facility has<br />
witnessed pre-Test Match practices by the England cricket team<br />
and Yorkshire CC and is attracting many new players.<br />
Ben commented that the three-year deal agreed with New<br />
Rover is a win-win for both parties and we are particularly<br />
proud that the Stoneacre logo features prominently on the<br />
ground hoarding...<br />
“Due to its location, approximately 25,000 vehicles pass that<br />
hoarding every day so that’s an extra bonus for both parties!”<br />
Michael says the sponsorship by Stoneacre has created much<br />
interest – not only from the Club’s fans and followers but<br />
also from further possible sponsorship opportunities.<br />
Anyone requesting a donation from the “Stoneacre<br />
Community Fund” should send an e-mail to:<br />
info@stoneacreproperties.co.uk giving a brief resume of<br />
