npower Backs Wear Your Shirt To Work Day

Leave a comment

npower in Worcester is taking part in a nationwide ‘Wear Your Shirt to Work’ day to mark 100 days to go until the official decision by FIFA of who will host the World Cup in 2018.

npower is an official supporter of the England 2018 FIFA World Cup Bid, and will be urging all of its 12,000 staff to get behind the campaign. Wear Your Shirt to Work day also coincides with a tour of some of the potential host cities by a delegation from football governing body, FIFA.

Wear Your Shirt to Work day is an initiative driven by the England 2018 Bid team and involves employees doing just as it suggests; wearing the shirt of their chosen football team to work. As well as encouraging England football fans to back the bid and raising awareness of the bid to host the 2018 FIFA World Cup, the initiative is also designed to show the passion many in England have for football during the crucial FIFA visit.

Emma Collins, sponsorship manager at npower, commented:”As official supporters of the Bid, we are more than happy to support this campaign by the England 2018 Bid team. Wear Your Shirt to Work day is a great way to engage our entire workforce in supporting the Bid and to raise awareness of npower’s involvement in it.

“We will be encouraging everyone to take part and wear their football shirts with pride to show FIFA that England not only has the facilities to host the World Cup, but the passion too.”

England 2018 Chief Executive Andy Anson said: “It’s great that npower is joining our Wear Your Shirt to Work campaign. The purpose of the day is to raise awareness of our Bid, have some fun, and to also mark an important milestone; 100 days until FIFA makes its decision about which country will welcome the World Cup in eight years time.”

npower Launches New Price Beater Offer For Small Business Customers

npower, official supporter of the bid to host the 2018 FIFA World Cup(TM), is offering to beat SME businesses’ renewal offers by 10% throughout the England 2018 Back the Bid campaign.

npower Launches New Price Beater Offer For Small Business Customers

npower believes that hosting the FIFA World Cup(TM) would bring a much-needed boost to the economy and to British businesses. It’s the reason why, throughout the Back the Bid campaign, npower is offering to beat SME businesses’ first renewal offers by at least 10% – so for example, for every £20 of energy charged by a company’s current supplier, npower could only charge £18. This could provide big savings for many small to medium sized businesses across the UK.

Andy Bickers, head of business sales at npower, said, “Hosting the FIFA World Cup(TM) in 2018 could bring an extra £3.2 billion to the economy, which would give businesses a fantastic lift. 82% of businesses surveyed believe that a FIFA World Cup (TM) in England would be great for business, with 63% saying it will boost morale. But we don’t want to wait until 2018 to help businesses, which is why we’ve launched our Price Beater offer, giving new customers the chance to save on the cost of renewing their energy contract.”

The new Back the Bid offer is being made available until 15th November 2010 and is based on the first written renewal quote from the existing supplier.
