Baker Estates has announced its joint platinum sponsorship of this summer’s Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta.
The association with the well-attended event is the fifth year running for the award-winning south west housebuilder who launched its popular Little Cotton Farm development in the town three years ago.
The Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta is a community event funded entirely by donations through sponsorships from local businesses and will take place, this year, from Wednesday 28th August to Saturday 31st of August.
The Regatta team are working closely with Dartmouth Town Council to put on the 179th Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta and hopes to be able to welcome many competitors across the traditional regatta sports including rowing and sailing.
Ed Botterill, Chair of the Port of Dartmouth Regatta said: “Dartmouth is a stunning town in South Devon and provides a magnificent backdrop to the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta. The event, one of the oldest in the country, is free to attend and the committee relies entirely on the amazing sponsors and generous public donations. Baker Estates has once again contributed to our Royal Regatta as a major sponsor. Its contribution will be an enormous factor as we need to raise nearly £200,000 to stage our event.
“The regatta committee are all volunteers and work tirelessly to bring a regatta that Dartmouth locals, visitors and guests will be proud of every year.
“Not only has the company given generous financial support but has helped in many other ways such as promotion and publicity, with a team competing in a rowing event! We are extremely grateful for the continued support of Baker Estates.”
Baker Estates will be showcasing its flagship development, Little Cotton Farm, at the regatta. Baker Estates is looking forward to hosting a range of family activities and a chance to win a year’s family membership for the National Trust.
Managing Director of Baker Estates, Ian Baker, commented: “As a local housebuilder, we are delighted to once again sponsor this historic event which is such a special date for so many people in Dartmouth. As a team, we are very much looking forward to taking part in this year’s Whaler Race as well as having the opportunity to talk to locals and Dartmouth’s visitors about our exceptional new homes at Little Cotton Farm.”
