Local accountancy firm launches new support for Honiton RFC during 2023 

A new sponsorship deal for Honiton Rugby Football Club for 2023 has been announced by Westcotts, the South West’s leading firm of Chartered Accountants and Business Advisers. 

Players from the 1st XV team joined the firm’s Honiton-based Manager Paul Hawkins (pictured) to ‘kick off’ Westcotts’ support ahead of the club’s home game against Exmouth II in the South West Division – Counties 2 Tribute Devon league on Saturday (21 January). 

A new prominent pitch-side perimeter board sporting Westcotts’ new logo and branding was unveiled at the Allhallows Playing Field in Honiton, along with the team’s new kit. Westcotts is also sponsoring Honiton RFC’s vice-captain Jake Smith (pictured) during the 2022/23 season. 

The firm, which has an office at Queens House on New Street in Honiton, as well as offices across Devon including Exeter, Axminster, Crediton, Seaton and Tiverton, has backed the club for several years.
