MJ Church, one of the region’s largest civil engineering, earthworks and waste management contractors, has agreed a two year sponsorship deal with Bath Racecourse as one of the venue’s Principal Partners.

The company, which is based in Chippenham, has enjoyed a positive 10 year relationship with Bath Racecourse, supporting various events and using race days to raise funds for local good causes.

The new deal will include prominent branding at the Racecourse and sponsorship of a charity race day in May as part of MJ Church’s commitment to raise funds for the RUH Forever Friends Appeal, a charity the company has supported for many years.

Managing Director Steve Blower said “As a local business we feel it is important to support and give something back to businesses, charities and communities in the areas within which we operate.

“The Bath Racecourse redevelopment, for which we are a contractor providing earthworks and groundworks, is looking fantastic and the team have done an incredible job in planning improvements which will definitely elevate the venue to the next level. 

“Our ongoing sponsorship will give us even more scope to use the venue for further fundraising activity, as well as helping to raise our profile. It is a great honour to be involved in the redevelopment work, and to have our name associated with Bath Racecourse when the work is completed.” 

Jo Hall, Executive  Director at Bath Racecourse added “We are delighted M J Church has chosen to continues its relationship with Bath Racecourse.

“We appreciate the excellent work done during the redevelopment and look forward to working with M J Church on fundraising and corporate events going forward.”
