A Winning Partnership: 121 Business Links Teams Up with Bishop Auckland Rugby Club

Aug 22, 2025 | News

121 Business Links is proud to announce an exciting new business relationship with Bishop Auckland Rugby Club. This partnership is a fantastic opportunity to bring our expertise to a valued local institution, helping to ensure the club’s long-term sustainability and success.

Director Chris Bonas of 121 Business Links will be working closely with Bishop Auckland Rugby Club’s Manager, Steven Jones. Their goal is to help the club both reduce its running costs and commercialise its operations.

“A key focus of the partnership is on cost reduction. Our initial work has already identified savings of over £1,000 a year on the club’s current energy contracts alone. This significant saving is just the beginning, as we will continue to look for ways to help the club become more financially efficient across other utilities,” said Chris Bonas.

Beyond financial savings, 121 Business Links will actively help the club commercialise its operations by providing ongoing support for revenue generation. We will offer our hospitality to all businesses and sponsors of the club, fostering a strong network within the local community and creating new opportunities for growth.

We are excited about the future of this partnership and the positive impact it will have on Bishop Auckland Rugby Club and the wider community.
