5 January 2005

Countrywide Car and Van Rental, one of the largest short-term corporate vehicle rental distributors in the UK, has agreed to supply two Ford Focus loan cars to West Ham United Football Club to assist its Football in the Community programme.  The agreement is for an initial one-year period.

Roddy Graham, commercial director of the Leasedrive Group said: “The extensive programme undertaken by West Ham really helps to positively promote football in the community and we are happy to be associated with such a worthwhile project.”

Alan Pardew, West Ham United manager said: “Football in the Community really means something to the club.  West Ham is one of the most socially aware clubs in the country and boasts one of the newest centres.”

The new Football in the Community Centre is based in Beckton and was opened in March, 2004.  It features dressing rooms and a full-size Sportsturf football pitch.  The cars supplied by the Leasedrive Group will be driven by West Ham United’s Football in the Community coaches.
