A WOODSTOCK-based manufacturer of medical devices has become the main club sponsor for Chipping Norton Town Football Club.

The club's men’s first team has began the season in a new fully sponsored kit thanks to support from Owen Mumford.

The new football shirts also feature a unique logo which has been created in memory of former player, Shaun Weller, who died of cancer at the age of 22 in 2012.

Treasurer of the football club Adam Hunt said: "We contacted Owen Mumford asking if they would be interested in sponsoring the club for this upcoming season and were absolutely delighted that they agreed to provide a new men’s football kit.

"A lot of hard work is carried out to obtain sponsorship, which is something the club relies on to keep going.

"The new football kit has given everyone a huge boost and we are very proud to be associated with Owen Mumford."

The sponsorship is part of a roster of local community focused initiatives run by the company, which has included support of the Villager Bus in Chipping Norton, a partnership with the Wychwood Project and an environmental solar panel initiative with the Low Carbon Hub.
