Everycare Edinburgh signs major sponsorship deal with Carlton Cricket Club.

Leading city care provider, Everycare, is delighted to announce an official sponsorship partnership with Carlton Cricket Club for the 2014 season.

The deal will see Everycare Edinburgh’s logo on team playing shirts and non match day training kit. As the principal club sponsor, Everycare will also benefit from branding within Carlton Cricket Club’s ground at Grange Loan. The sponsorship package also includes prominent coverage within club match programmes, the club’s membership booklet and also on the highly-regarded Carlton Cricket Club website.
Commenting on the agreement, Everycare Edinburgh Managing Director Martin Walker said:

“Carlton Cricket Club fulfils all the criteria I was looking for in a sponsorship arrangement. Attending to the needs of people in their own homes with varying degrees of physical impairment, I particularly wanted to team up with a sporting organisation as a counterbalance. Cricket is not considered a “mainstream” sport in Scotland and, as the first Everycare branch in Edinburgh, this appealed to me as Everycare Edinburgh is a little bit out of the ordinary in our quality approach to care provision and, with our client base in the community, I was also looking to invest in an activity with strong community ties. Further, having celebrated its 150 year anniversary last year, Carlton Cricket Club’s illustrious heritage was attractive as Everycare Edinburgh’s espoused values are highly traditional. I am looking forward to having a long and mutually beneficial relationship with the Club.”

Speaking about the relationship, Carlton Cricket Club President, Andy Macpherson, said:

“We are very pleased to have Everycare on board. Having funded the electrification of our scoreboard last year, we are thrilled that Everycare Edinburgh has agreed to be our main sponsor for the 2014 season and we look forward to working closely with them going forward.”

The sponsorship deal has helped Carlton to continue its emphasis on providing top quality coaching, with the club delighted to secure the services of ex-Scotland Head Coach Peter Steindl for the season. Carlton is sure its many promising home-grown youngsters will benefit greatly from his vast coaching experience.

Everycare Edinburgh provides care services to clients at home and offers a wide range of options that can be individually tailored to meet specific client requirements. These include all types of personal care, companionship, sleepovers and night sitting, convalescence support, bathing, meal preparation, excursions and outings, domestic help, laundry, errands and shopping. The care team has considerable experience supporting people with dementia and care can be provided at any time of the day or through the night.

Owned and operated by Martin Walker, and part of a national network of 23 branches, Everycare Edinburgh opened in 2011 as the first Everycare office in Scotland and, since taking on its first client in June of that year, has quickly established itself as one of the city’s leading care providers. Following a recent unannounced inspection, The Care Inspectorate, rated Everycare Edinburgh as being “Very Good” for the quality of care it provides, “Very Good” for the quality of its staff and “Very Good” for the quality of its management.

Everycare Edinburgh provides further evidence that – across the UK – Everycare has, arguably, a better reputation for the quality of care provided to its clients than any other national provider.
