You may well find more than you bargained for when you visit your local SPAR store:
We're always open when you need us, plus many SPAR stores offer vital local services including Post Office, banking services, top-ups, lottery and bill paying facilities - why?
Because the majority of our stores are owned, managed and run by people who live in the community they serve!
SPAR retailers feel a genuine responsibility to provide for their community, because they are part of the community.
With shops throughout the South West, Isle of Wight and the Channel Islands, SPAR, SPAR Express and EUROSPAR are at the heart of South West communities and "Always There for You".
At SPAR we aim to provide you, the customer, with all the services that are important to your local community.
SPAR is also involved in a number of community initiatives and is developing a framework to become even more closely involved in supporting the things that matter to you. All our stores aim to play an active role in local life and the rural community. Visit our website often to keep up to date with how SPAR is helping communities.
Getting kids active and enjoying sport is important to SPAR. SPAR supports sports at all levels: On the international and local stage. From school sports days to elite events.
Since 1996, SPAR has been the principal sponsor of the European Athletics Association. This means that SPAR is seen across the world on competitor's bibs, at the start line and on perimeter boards at many different events.
Millions of viewers witness our commitment to supporting top sporting events and athletes. Our current sponsorship includes sponsorship of the European Athletics Championships, European Athletics Indoor Championships, SPAR European Cup, SPAR European Cross Country Championships and the European Athletics Indoor Cup.
"As a principal sponsor of our sport, we thank SPAR for their on-going contribution towards achieving great European athletics events and enabling continued strong competition for our athletes." Hansjörg Wirz, President of the European Athletics Association.
With the 2012 London Olympics just over the horizon, we're doing our bit to nurture the UK's next generation of elite sprinters and hurdlers. The SPAR Sprints Initiative aims to increase young people's participation in athletics while improving the current coaching and development structure.
The Sprints Initiative focuses on quality coaching programmes designed to improve young athletes' running form, posture, technique, agility, fitness and overall performance.
