News / Crown Highways becomes first Founders Club patron of the Aston Villa Foundation

Crown Highways is strengthening its commitment to supporting local communities after becoming the first patron of the Aston Villa Foundation’s newly launched Founders Club.

The Founders Club brings together businesses and individuals committed to creating a lasting positive impact across Birmingham and the communities surrounding Villa Park.

For Crown Highways, the partnership reflects a longstanding belief that the company’s impact should extend beyond the highways projects it delivers. Supporting communities, creating opportunities and delivering meaningful social value are an important part of how Crown does business.

The Aston Villa Foundation works with communities through a range of programmes and initiatives focused on enriching lives and creating opportunities for local people. The Founders Club provides a way for businesses and individuals to come together around that shared ambition and support the Foundation’s work.

Becoming the first patron is a natural extension of Crown Highways’ wider commitment to social value and community engagement, reinforcing its ambition to make a positive difference in the communities in which it works.

The partnership also reflects Crown’s belief in the importance of collaboration. By working alongside the Aston Villa Foundation and others who share the same ambition, Crown hopes to support positive outcomes and create opportunities that make a genuine difference to local people.

Crown Highways Chairman Steve Jones commented:

“Crown Highways is incredibly proud to become the first patron of the Aston Villa Foundation’s Founders Club.

“Supporting the communities around us has always been important to Crown. We want the impact we make to go beyond the work we deliver on the network, creating opportunities and benefits that make a genuine difference to local people.

“The Aston Villa Foundation is already doing fantastic work across Birmingham and the surrounding communities, and we’re proud to support that work and be part of the Founders Club from the very beginning.”
