Gloucester Rugby and Willans relaunch Gloucester Rugby Business Club
As Gloucester Rugby’s official legal partner and sponsor, Willans has joined forces with the organisation to relaunch the Gloucester Rugby Business Club with a series of ‘behind the scenes’ insight events.
The Gloucester Rugby Business Club is a forum for local, like-minded business owners and leaders to connect, collaborate and learn. Membership is open to all Gloucestershire businesses and includes invitations to a series of events throughout the year.
To mark the relaunch, Business Club members are invited to Kingsholm Stadium on Wednesday 19 November to hear Cillian Reardon, Head of Performance, and Dr James Hudson, Performance Nutritionist as they discuss the power of elite sports strategies to boost performance, resilience, and wellbeing in business.
The event’s sponsor and Gloucester Rugby’s official legal partner, Willans LLP solicitors, has been part of the Gloucestershire business community for over 75 years and actively supports a range of cultural, sporting and charitable organisations and initiatives including Cheltenham Festivals and Three Counties Agricultural Society.
Speaking about the news, Gloucester Rugby’s Commercial Sales Director, James Forrester, said: “We’re proud of the strong relationship between Gloucester Rugby and the local business community, which helps to facilitate networking, provide brand visibility, and support local economic growth. Through the Business Club and its directory, we’re excited to offer members access to fascinating ‘behind the scenes’ insights from successful sporting figures and business leaders.”
Senior partner at Willans, Paul Gordon said: “As official legal partners of Gloucester Rugby, and as active members of the business community, we’re delighted to align ourselves with the Business Club and its mission to make a lasting impact on economic growth across the region.”
