Sponsored classes at
Local Horse Shows
As our company is based in rural Lincolnshire, and supply wood shavings to private horse owners and equestrian yards, we support many horse shows in the local area. We sponsored classes at the Burton Hunt Pony Club show jumping events and hunter trials in 2022 and 2023. We supported White House Farm Shows and Norton District Riding Club for the last two years and will continue to sponsor their shows throughout the 2024 season.

Brinded Racing #98
We have been sponsoring Brinded Racing #98 for four years. Brandon is a motorcycle racer from Lincoln, and he travels all over the UK to compete at circuits.
Timber Donation
Collingham Young Farmers Club
We donated timber and sheet materials to the Collingham Young Farmers Club so they could create their 'All Creatures Great and Small' themed trailer! Congratulations to them for winning the 'Decorated Trailer Competition' at Lincolnshire Show 2022!
Fund-raising Events
We regularly donate timber to Dawn Plant for her fund-raising events. The timber is used to make wood craft decorations to sell on the day. Dawn holds Macmillan Coffee Mornings at North Hykeham Youth Club and has raised an amazing £18,000 for charity so far!
Local Schools
Local primary schools in North Scarle, Eagle, Swinderby and Harby received donations of vouchers, Christmas trees or timber for projects.
Sports Teams
We are sponsoring North Scarle Football Club for the 2024 season and have provided them with new kit. Our advertising boards can also be seen around the pitch at Lincoln United Football Club’s ground.
