SNA are pleased to be the new Official Club Sponsor for Herne Bay Football Club of the Bulmers Kent Premier League.

Safety Net Associates are pleased to be able to support Herne Bay Football Club over the coming years with a new five year sponsorship deal worth over £50,000.

The club, players and supporters should recognise the effort John Bathurst the Chair of HBFC made to convince us to become involved with the club.

Sara Kennett, SNA Director, commented on the new sponsorship deal: "This is very exciting news for our company, but particularly for me as I am a local Herne Bay girl and we are very pleased to be able to assist Herne Bay FC in enabling them to fulfill their potential and hopefully gain much deserved promotion this season".

Sara went on to say "We see this as strengthening the support we are intending to give the Kent Schools under 14 Football Team, as our county level nominated good cause, and the local support we will be giving to the Pilgrims Hospice".  

Since Safety Net Associates located in Canterbury in January 2009 we have been keen to develop our local corporate social responsibility agenda to the same level as our national support with regard to Neighbourhood Justice issues.  

We would welcome any Herne Bay based good cause or charity to contact us if they believe that free advertising at the ground, or through the match programme, would help them in their endeavours in reaching the wider Herne Bay community. 

Herne Bay FC Chairman John Bathurst and Safety Net Associates Director Trevor Kennett shake on the deal after signing the five-year agreement.

About Safety Net Associates  

The company represents 32 senior public figures who are either still working in the social justice sector or who have recently retired and give time to the national BTEC neighbourhood justice qualifications programme.

Safety Net Associates manage in support of The Neighbourhood Justice Foundation.   

As a company we offer strategic consultancy in the areas of public safety, investigations and information security with their partners Vega UK Ltd, the European consultancy house for Finmeccanica.  

The Directors chose to change their London base to Canterbury as the Directors are all originally from the Herne Bay and Canterbury area and as the companies activities are extensive throughout the UK and abroad a London base was not necessary.
