At HDUK, we believe that great teams are built on trust, collaboration, and commitment, values that drive success in both business and sport. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our latest community partnership with the Topsham Tempests Rugby Team, through the sponsorship of one of their dedicated players.
This initiative is part of our ongoing mission to give back to the communities we serve, supporting individuals and organisations that embody the same principles we live by every day: teamwork, resilience, and drive.
Through this partnership, HDUK is proud to announce its sponsorship of a player from the Topsham Tempests, the women’s section of Topsham RFC.
Based in Devon, Topsham Tempests is known for its strong community spirit and commitment to grassroots rugby. The team’s ethos mirrors our own of fostering collaboration, building trust, and striving for excellence in everything they do.
More Than a Just a Shirt, A Commitment to Community
This sponsorship goes beyond branding. It’s about creating opportunities, strengthening connections, and investing in the people who make a difference.
At HDUK, we understand the power of initiatives that bring people together. Rugby, much like IT, thrives on communication, reliability, and teamwork. Whether it’s securing data or scoring tries, success depends on preparation, protection, and performance.
Our support helps players focus on the game they love and hopefully inspires others to get involved.
“We’re thrilled to support Topsham Tempests this season,” said Matthew Healey, Chief Executive Officer at HDUK. “Grassroots sports play a vital role in building community and teaching values that align perfectly with our business — teamwork, respect, and continuous improvement. We’re proud to be part of that journey.”
“Having the support of local businesses like HDUK makes a real difference. It helps us provide better opportunities for our players. It’s fantastic to be supported by a company that shares our passion for teamwork.”
“I have come back to the Tempests after a 2-year break, and it feels like home. I feel proud and thankful to be sponsored by HDUK, having businesses that care and support local teams is great news for us. “
Our collaboration with Topsham Tempests is part of a broader commitment to supporting community projects across the UK. From youth development programmes to local charity partnerships, HDUK continues to invest in people and purpose, both online and off.
“We’re committed to helping local communities grow stronger,” added Darren Smith “Whether through technology or teamwork, our goal is always to make a positive, lasting impact.”
We’ll be following Topsham Tempests’ journey closely this season, cheering them on from the sidelines and celebrating every tackle, try, and triumph.
From all of us at HDUK: good luck this season, Tempests! we’re proud to be part of your story!
