For almost two and a half seasons, GoSkippy, one of Somerset Bridge Group’s insurance brands, has proudly taken its place on the back of Bristol City FC’s Men’s team shirts. It’s more than a sponsorship. It’s a statement about who we are, where we come from, and the communities we’re committed to championing.

Rooted in Bristol, we’ve always believed in the power of local sport to bring people together, spark ambition and build momentum. That’s why this partnership matters. It connects our brand to the heartbeat of the city and to a fanbase that lives and breathes passion, resilience and drive.

A Strong Season On and Off the Pitch
The 2024/25 season was a standout year for the Robins, with dynamic performances and packed-home support. But the impact wasn’t limited to Ashton Gate. Our partnership helped amplify GoSkippy’s presence nationwide, reaching new audiences and engaging football fans across the UK.

From stadium visibility to national broadcasts and match day moments, the collaboration has pushed our brand further and faster delivering real value while keeping us rooted in the community we’re proud to support.

A Partnership That Benefits Our Customers
For us, supporting Bristol City isn’t just about backing a great team it’s about investing in the communities our customers live, work and cheer in. When our brand grows, it strengthens our ability to deliver better products, faster service and more value for the people who trust us with their insurance. This partnership helps us stay visible, connected and grounded in the real world, so we can keep building an insurer that puts customers first.
