Elivia Homes has continued its commitment to the local community in Finchampstead by funding a temporary training facility for Finchampstead FC under-10 Daggers, ensuring the team can continue to train without disruption whilst necessary improvement works were carried out on their home pitch.
In September 2025, the Daggers were left without a training ground for four weeks whilst their usual venue underwent resurfacing works.
To support the team during this period, Elivia Homes funded the hire of a floodlit astroturf pitch, contributing funds to cover the costs and allowing the players to maintain their weekly training schedule.
This latest contribution takes Elivia Homes’ total support for the club to more than £1,400 over the past three seasons.
Stuart Wilson, Daggers’ manager, said: “We are incredibly grateful to Elivia Homes for stepping in at short notice to fund our temporary training facility.
“Having access to a high-quality, floodlit pitch meant the boys could continue training as normal, which was so important for their development and team morale.
“Support like this from a local business makes a genuine difference to grassroots football.”
While the recent funding addressed an immediate need for the team, it also builds on an established relationship between Elivia Homes and the club.
Over the past three seasons, Elivia has supported the Daggers and their wider year group through kit sponsorship, helping provide kits for around 40 young players across four teams.
Sarah Turpin, sales and marketing director for Elivia Homes, added: “As a business operating in Finchampstead, we believe it’s so important that we give back to the community. grassroots football plays such an important role in bringing young people together and building confidence, teamwork and resilience.
“We are very proud of our ongoing association with Finchampstead FC, and are so pleased we could offer some support in ensuring their training could continue uninterrupted.”
