Llangollen Football Club has received a £600 financial boost from TalkTalk, he home phone and broadband provider.
The club will be sponsored by TalkTalk for the next 12 months and the funding will be used to buy new training equipment.
Residents in Llangollen, Dinbren and Berwyn will also benefit from a £50,000 investment by TalkTalk, which is expanding its Next Generation Network to provide residents with access to fast, reliable, better value and more secure broadband.
Built into the broadband network itself and unique to TalkTalk is the network-level security service HomeSafe™.
Homesafe gives customers control over the type of websites their household can access across every single device that connects to the internet in their home.
Robert Evans, Chairman at Llangollen Football Club, said: “We are very pleased that TalkTalk has chosen to support Llangollen Football Club over the next twelve months. The donation has been used to purchase new training equipment."
Tristia Clarke, commercial director at TalkTalk, said: “By investing in the exchange in Llangollen TalkTalk will be able to bring our great value offers to even more families in the area and give customers access to our fantastic security service HomeSafe™.
"In this amazing Olympic year, TalkTalk is also delighted to be supporting sport at grassroots level up and down the country. Llangollen Football Club is a fantastic example of a local club engaging and enthusing the next generation to enjoy sport. We wish them every success with future endeavours."
By installing its own equipment in the local exchange, TalkTalk claims it can offer even better value services and innovative products to its customers.
The NGN enables speeds of up to 14mb and customers who have recently been upgraded to the new network experience an average increase in broadband speed of 50%.
Why are you posting a huge advert for Talk Talk? They do this all the time - giving a pathetic £600 to clubs and societies all over the country in return for insisting an article goes into the local press with standard wording which is essentially marketing bumf. The "£50,000 investment" is also a standard figure which has no basis in reality. What happens is that every grant is accompanied by a team of salespeople doorstepping every house in the area selling TalkTalk packages, the installation of which might add up to £50000, but only if they convince enough people to switch over. You can do better than that - don't buy into the hype.
