Members of the Great Harwood Rovers team with John Timmins from Townfield Care
A MOBILITY equipment supplier is sponsoring a football club for the third time.
Great Harwood Rovers are being sponsored by Townfield Mobility, with the club's home ground officially named the Townfield Mobility Arena since April 2023.
The partnership continues a longstanding family connection between Townfield and the club.
Parents Maria and the late Geoff Timmins first began sponsoring Great Harwood Rovers more than 25 years ago, with sons Michael and John later playing for the teams.
Great Harwood Rovers have been at the heart of the community for nearly 50 years.
