Aviva

Aviva has been the sponsor of ‘On Camp with Kelly’ since the first educational camp in South Africa in 2004 and has helped Kelly develop the initiative to be the success that it is today.

Head of Sponsorship Tanya Veingard explains why the company backs the initiative: “At Aviva we are committed to providing opportunities for young athletes and helping to make it easier to achieve their dreams. Through our support of ‘On Camp With Kelly’ we are delighted to be helping nurture and develop talented girls into world class athletes that Britain can be proud of and we look forward to seeing them progress from strength to strength. As the team behind UK Athletics we’re proud to be able to offer support for all levels of athletics – from grassroots through to elite – and ‘On Camp with Kelly’ is a fantastic programme for young girls who dream of winning gold.”

Aviva has been the team behind UKA for over a decade, supporting the sport from playground to podium. We recognise individuals’ motivations for taking part in sport and getting active, and support them doing their best. We’re giving every child in the UK the opportunity to get involved in athletics by 2012, and providing extensive support to teachers to deliver the sport in schools.

As the team behind UKA, Aviva’s support at every level will add value to the existing World Class Pathway investment in elite athletes, provide more opportunities to help identify future champions, and also help prepare children for life challenges through increased sporting participation.
