Local Developer Baker Estates has announced its joint platinum sponsorship of this summer's, Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta.

The Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta is a community event funded entirely by donations through sponsorships from local businesses and will take place, this year, from Wednesday, August 28 to Saturday, August 31.

Ed Botterill, Chair of the Port of Dartmouth Regatta said: “Dartmouth is a stunning town in South Devon and provides a magnificent backdrop to the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta. The event, one of the oldest in the country, is free to attend and the committee relies entirely on the amazing sponsors and generous public donations. Baker Estates has once again contributed to our Royal Regatta as a major sponsor. Its contribution will be an enormous factor as we need to raise nearly £200,000 to stage our event. “The regatta committee are all volunteers and work tirelessly to bring a regatta that Dartmouth locals, visitors and guests will be proud of every year. “Not only has the company given generous financial support but has helped in many other ways such as promotion and publicity, with a team competing in a rowing event. We are extremely grateful for the continued support of Baker Estates.”

Baker Estates will be showcasing its flagship development, Little Cotton Farm, at the regatta.

The company is looking forward to hosting a range of family activities and a chance to win a year’s family membership for the National Trust. Managing Director of Baker Estates, Ian Baker, said: “As a local housebuilder, we are delighted to once again sponsor this historic event which is such a special date for so many people in Dartmouth.

As a team, we are very much looking forward to taking part in this year’s Whaler Race as well as having the opportunity to talk to locals and Dartmouth’s visitors about our exceptional new homes at Little Cotton Farm.”
