As part of Marlow’s commitment to supporting the local Hailsham community, this partnership will see a sign displayed on the side of the picket fence at the Western Road ground and the two organisations working closely together over the next two years.

Emma Donovan marketing and communication manager at Corde Marlow said: “Marlow Ropes are proud to be a part of Hailsham’s 200-year rope-making history and we are delighted to now be supporting Hailsham Cricket Club for the next two years.

With much of our workforce being local to Hailsham and keen sports fans, it was important to our ‘Employee Voice’ team that we support local sports teams such as Hailsham CC.  We look forward to cheering the club on over the next couple of seasons.”

Rob Wilkinson Director of Cricket at Hailsham said: “Partnerships like this one with Marlow Ropes are vital to the continued growth and progression of the club. We have so many local businesses with skills and products that can help us as a club, and we can help them equally the same in return.
