Community Collaboration
At Sustain, we take pride in our connection with the local community. We believe that businesses play an essential role in enhancing the well-being and vitality of the areas they serve.
Our Community Initiatives
Supporting Local Charities:
One of the core pillars of our community involvement is our support for local charities. We recognise the diverse needs within our community and have taken steps to contribute to its betterment. By extending our resources and expertise, we aim to create a lasting and positive influence. Our efforts demonstrate not only our commitment but also our genuine care for the people we serve.
Clean Up UK Partnership
In June this year, our entire organisation united for a common cause: to make a difference in our community. We partnered with Clean Up UK to address an environmental concern close to our hearts. Our team spent a day dedicated to collecting rubbish from a residential area in Chippenham. This hands-on initiative showcases our willingness to roll up our sleeves and actively contribute to creating a cleaner, healthier environment for everyone.
Empowering Youth through Sports
We believe in nurturing the potential of our youth, which is why we actively support initiatives that provide opportunities for growth and development. Sustain collaboration with Bath Road Wanderers, a new football team, exemplifies our commitment to keeping young people engaged, active and empowered. By fostering an environment where they can build lasting friendships and cultivate a healthy lifestyle, we contribute to the overall well-being of our community’s future leaders.

Sustain Insurance Brokers Founder, Jonathan Evans, Backs Rising Hampshire Cricket Star
Sustain proudly announces its sponsorship of Sam Ashman, a promising cricket talent training with the Hampshire Cricket Academy. This collaboration underscores Sustain’s commitment to fostering young athletes’ aspirations and supporting their journey to success.
A lifelong passion for cricket has driven Sam’s journey in the sport. Instilled by his father’s influence and guidance, Sam has demonstrated exceptional skill and commitment, earning a spot on the Wiltshire county cricket team at just eight years old. His talent and dedication led to an academy contract offer from Hampshire, marking a significant milestone in his burgeoning cricket career.
As a member of Hampshire’s esteemed academy, Sam has showcased his abilities by occasionally representing the men’s second team. His ultimate aspiration is to represent England on the international stage, a dream he pursues with relentless determination.
Jonathan Evan, founder of Sustain Insurance Brokers, expressed his enthusiasm for supporting Sam’s journey, stating, “It’s a privilege to stand behind Sam as he pursues his dreams in cricket. His talent and dedication are inspirational and we are proud to support him on his cricketing journey.”
Sustain Insurance Brokers and Wilcot have agreed to highlight the partnership through prominent branding on the clubhouse premises and player shirts. The clubhouse, a central hub for team gatherings and community events, will proudly display Sustain’s logo and messaging. Additionally, Sustain will be the main sponsor on the shirts, worn by both the Saturday and Sunday teams.
Founder of Sustain, Jonathan Evans, said:
“We are thrilled to embark on this journey with Wilcot Cricket Club. By aligning with Wilcot, we are able to reinvest a portion of our profits back into something which is so important to the local community. The exponential growth of the youth setup at Wilcot over the last few years shows the appetite that young people have to learn new skills, stay active and build relationships with fellow team mates which will hopefully last for generations. It’s a privilege to have the opportunity to support something which is so important. ”
Richard Lanyon Chairman of Wilcot Cricket Club said :
”Wilcot Cricket Club is very excited and grateful that Sustain Insurance Brokers has decided to enter in to a strategic partnership with us for the forthcoming season.
The development of our junior section , both boys and girls , has gone from strength to strength over the last few seasons .This generous sponsorship from Sustain will enable us to continue to improve both our training programmes and facilities.”
“Penny Post is extremely grateful for Sustain’s sponsorship of our fortnightly Eco Podcast. This financial support allows us to cover more local green initiatives, showcasing the brilliant work that so many people are doing on the ground, in their own words. This in turn inspires listeners to do similar in their own area, creating a culture of optimism and constructive action.” Penny Locke, Publisher
“Listening to the Penny Post eco-podcasts is a wonderful insight into the number of local people who have a passion for helping the environment in such a variety of ways. Hearing them explain new projects such as creating a Wildlife Corridor in Newbury is inspirational for our group, especially as Penny always gives contact details for more information.” Penelope Brewer, member of Lambourn Environmental Group.
Our commitment to social responsibility extends beyond our core business activities, as we actively seek opportunities to support local charities, engage in meaningful partnerships and foster a sense of community among our colleagues, clients and partners.
