New Tupton Ivanhoe FC is strengthening its commitment to the local community by announcing Fairplay as its official charity partner.
The partnership will run for the next two seasons, with Fairplay’s branding featured on all new New Tupton Ivanhoe home kits introduced during this period. The initiative will put the charity at the heart of the club while helping raise awareness of the vital work it does with children, young people and families across Chesterfield and North Derbyshire.
Fairplay supports children and young people aged 0 to 25 with disabilities and additional needs, as well as their families. The charity provides a wide range of services, activities and support designed to help young people develop confidence, independence and life skills.
For New Tupton Ivanhoe, the shirts are just the start of the partnership. Over the next two seasons, the club and Fairplay will work together on fundraising activities, awareness raising and other opportunities to support the charity and involve players, coaches, families and the wider club community.

Andy Fox, Chair of New Tupton Ivanhoe FC, said:
“We are really proud to make Fairplay our charity partner. We wanted this to be more than simply putting a logo on a shirt. We want our players and families to understand the difference Fairplay makes locally and give everyone connected with the club opportunities to get involved.
“The shirts are the start of what we hope will be a fantastic partnership, with fundraising and other activities throughout the next two seasons.”
Heather Fawbert, Chief Executive of Fairplay, said:
“We are delighted to be partnering with New Tupton Ivanhoe FC. The club shares our belief that strong communities make a real difference to children, young people and families.
“We are looking forward to working together over the next two seasons and seeing where this partnership takes us.”
