Sponsors

My life is very busy: being married and bringing up three young children with my wife Maya, I am also holding down a job to keep the family finances in order. And my constant battle is finding sponsors and supporters who can help with the cost of representing the UK in home-based, European and World-status events.

If you're a business, organisation or private individual and would like to sponsor me, please email me at info@ianmarsden.com.
