The Huddersfield based company will supply the venue dressing requirements for both international slalom events at Lee Valley White Water Centre, the London 2012 Games legacy venue based on the Hertfordshire/Essex border.

The event dressing will include creating a range of bespoke materials for the main entrance and buildings, wayfinding around the venue, course side branding, podium back drop and the ‘kiss and cry’ area on the finish line.

Gareth May, Business Development Manager at British Canoeing said:

“With just over five months (14 Jan) to the start of the 2019 ICF Canoe Slalom World Cup I am delighted that we have appointed Leach as our official venue dressing sponsor.

Leach has a world class reputation, expertise and passion demonstrated in the museum and retail sectors, and I am confident that their innovative display solutions will showcase and elevate our international events to a whole new level.

“We are really looking forward to working with Leach, as they grow and diversify their business, entering into the sports arena market for the first time.”

For over a century Leach has been a leader in the world of high-impact, large-format graphic displays. Founded in 1891 Leach has grown to become a 100-strong business, with over 500 customers and an annual turnover of £11 million.

From HD quality display graphics, ultra-bright light boxes and wallcovering solutions, to floor graphics, screen-printing and external signage – Leach’s pioneering innovations continue to transform the look of brands, retailers, museums, heritage sites and interior environments.

“There’s a shared passion for innovation across our two companies and we’re thrilled to be able to transform the look and feel of the host venue and improve the spectator experience.
