Letchworth and Warrington based Redwood Bank has signed a two-year deal with Warrington Wolves - the club, where comedian and The Last Leg presenter Adam Hills regularly pulls on a jersey for the Physical Disability Rugby League side.

Wolves will start their bid for honours at home against Leeds Rhinos - when the new season kicks off on Thursday (February 16) on Sky Sports, when The Wolves take on 2022's beaten Grand Finalists.

With 66 live games on Sky Sports in 2023, Letchworth's specialist bank will feature heavily on our screens, through Channel Four and Sky Sports coverage, as the club aims to improve on its 11th position in the last campaign. 

Gary Wilkinson, CEO and Co-Founder of the Letchworth-based bank, said: "We couldn't be more delighted to agree this sponsorship with 'The Wire' as they prepare for the start of a new season."  

Gary added: "Warrington Borough Council is one of Redwood's significant shareholders, and we have a strong staff presence in our Warrington office, so we are very pleased to be able to strengthen further our links with the community.

"The Wolves have a passionate following and it's important to show that we share that passion.  

"When the opportunity came along to be part of the Warrington Wolves journey, we simply couldn't say no. We care about our roots and want to be able to give back and show that we are a part of the community." 

The Bank will also feature on the left sleeve of shirts worn by the first team, reserves and under 19s throughout the season.

Since its inception in 2017, the Bank has loaned more than £170 million to people and properties based in Warrington and the North West, representing approximately 31 per cent of Redwood Bank's lending.

This compares to an industry average of 10 per cent – underlining the Bank's commitment to its roots.   

Warrington Wolves CEO Karl Fitzpatrick said: "We are thrilled to partner with Redwood Bank as our sleeve sponsor for the 2023 season.  

"Their commitment to supporting and investing in the local community aligns with our own values, and we are grateful for their support.

"A great example of this is their generosity in donating 10 memberships to our Help a Child be Part of the Pack scheme, which is fantastic to see. We look forward to working together this year."
