We are excited to officially welcome Richard Utting Associates (RUA) as a new partner, solidifying a relationship that has grown throughout the development of The Nest, our community hub. 

RUA, a respected name in the construction and project management industry, has been a valued supporter of the Foundation for some time. Their expertise played a crucial role in the development and realisation of The Nest. Now, we are proud to announce that RUA has officially joined as a partner of both the Community Sports Foundation and The Nest.  

In addition to their professional, hands-on involvement, RUA has consistently demonstrated their commitment to the Foundation’s mission by actively participating with our corporate donation scheme. Their generosity and support have already made a tangible impact, enabling the Foundation to continue delivering vital services and opportunities to individuals of all ages and abilities across the community. 

Jonathan Nelson, Partner at RUA, expressed the company’s enthusiasm for the official partnership: 

“Having worked closely with the Community Sports Foundation over the past few years, we have seen firsthand the incredible work they do to support and inspire the local community through sport. We are thrilled to officially join as partners, not just for The Nest, but for the entire Foundation, and look forward to supporting their efforts long into the future.”

Jackie Thornton, Director of Strategy and Development at the Community Sports Foundation, recognises RUA’s ongoing support: 

“Richard Utting Associates have been a key contributor to the success of The Nest, and we’re delighted to now call them an official partner. Their dedication to our cause, both in terms of professional expertise and financial support, has been invaluable, and we look forward to building on this fantastic relationship to create even greater community impact.”

As a partner of both the Foundation and The Nest, RUA will continue to contribute to the development of the site and the programmes delivered there, helping to enhance the opportunities and facilities available to the local community.

This official partnership marks a new chapter in the collaboration between RUA and the Foundation, as they work together to inspire and empower people through sport and community engagement.
