New partner: UKASL agree three-year deal

Sunderland AFC is delighted to announce a new three-year partnership with UK Asbestos Specialists Limited.

The agreement, which will see UKASL become an official partner of the club, signals the next phase of an ever-blossoming partnership between SAFC and one of the UK's leading asbestos awareness training providers.

Since first teaming up with SAFC over 15 years ago, UK Asbestos Specialists Limited have continually supported the club and become a regular presence across its digital media channels, including sponsoring the official Matchday Centre and the Man of the Match poll.

From Wearside to Wembley, UKASL also backed the Black Cats overseas during the summer of 2019 by partnering with them for their pre-season tour of Portugal.

The new multi-year agreement will see UKASL continue to proudly feature across the club’s engagement platforms, while also taking pride of place on the official team sheet and on the exit of the famous Stadium of Light tunnel.

SAFC’s Chief Executive Officer, Jim Rodwell, said: “UKASL have continued to back the club throughout some of the most difficult seasons in its history. Since my arrival at SAFC, my colleagues have spoken incredibly highly of Les and his team and they value that support greatly. After forging a strong and lasting partnership, we are looking forward to working closely with them throughout the next three years, as we continue to develop a relationship that will benefit SAFC and UKASL for many years to come.”

Les Cooper, UKASL’s Managing Director, added: “For us as a company, signing this partnership with Sunderland AFC is an immensely proud moment. We have been involved with the club as corporate clients for over 15 years, but we have rapidly built that relationship in the last five. Both my family and I are passionate Sunderland fans, and I have been hooked since my first game in 1971. We are truly honoured to be part of the club that I have loved for the past 50 years, and we hope this deal helps SAFC push forward during these challenging times.”
