partnership with Hartlepool United. Health and fitness are hugely important in

elite sport, and we look forward to playing a part in the club's future

successes.

“We are planning to work with more sporting

institutions around the North East and hopefully people can gain a greater

understanding of the services we offer here at Nuffield Health Tees Hospital

through our increased exposure.”

English football pyramid, and the sponsorship deal comes at a time when the

club are well-positioned for a return to the Football League.
