Perth-based Bell Ingram is supporting the Udny Juniors Agricultural Club with a donation of £700
Members of an Aberdeenshire agricultural club are set to tackle upcoming events in style after receiving new shirts thanks to sponsorship from a leading land and estate agent.
Perth-based Bell Ingram is supporting the Udny Juniors Agricultural Club (JAC) with a generous donation of ÂŁ700, which it has put towards the brand new rugby tops.
The team competes in young farmer events around the local area, ranging from physical challenges such as tug of war and âBubble Footballâ to more low key activities like baking and sewing.
The donation comes at a welcome time for JAC as the club celebrates its 90th anniversary next year â a momentous occasion for everyone involved. Michelle Stephen, Press Secretary for JAC and Assistant Land Agent with Bell Ingramâs Aberdeen office is grateful for her employerâs kind support of her team.
She said: âWe like to update our shirts every few years to give new members a chance to have one. They help give the team a real sense of identity and bring us together as a group, which is very important. Itâs great being part of the club as itâs very social. Everyone chips in and adds value so itâs a really fun place to be.
âThe sponsorship has really helped the club financially, as it allows us to enable the cost for current members. We went through a drop in the number of members at one stage but we have now been able to recoup this and pull it back to a sustainable level.
âWeâd like to personally thank Bell Ingram for its generosity and commitment to supporting us."
