Sundown Solutions, the Lancashire-based tech consultancy, has strengthened its relationship with Accrington Stanley FC by building a Cloud Centre of Excellence within the Gallery Lounge, the new facility at the Wham Stadium.

Sundown is already back of shirt sponsors and board sponsors at Accrington Stanley, and is heavily involved in grassroots football and front of shirt sponsors at Accrington Stanley Women FC.

The new Cloud Centre of Excellence gives Sundown a dedicated space to train its staff through their Microsoft qualifications, as well as providing office space and a hub for their staff who want to meet up and collaborate if they work remotely.

Heath Groves, CEO of Sundown Solutions commented: "We've got a long standing relationship with Accrington Stanley as sponsors and we've been looking for premises to hold our Cloud Centre of Excellence. Now we've closed the deal!

"This is our in house expert training facility, where we progress people through their qualifications. We'll also be using this as a hub, as Sundowners work remotely from all over the UK and they can utilise this as their spiritual home."

Tony Boyle, chief strategy officer added: "We've managed to secure this fantastic workspace, The Gallery at the WHAM Stadium as our CCoE. Although we as a team can work remotely, we do need time together where we can collaborate and deliver great outcomes for our customers."

Kelly Groves, chief operating officer said: "The Cloud Centre of Excellence is key for Sundown. We have a very steep growth trajectory here and we're always actively recruiting. We are taking new recruits through their professional qualifications as soon as they join."

David Burgess, managing director of Accrington Stanley, also added: "It's great for us that Sundown wanted to build on our great relationship and build their Cloud Centre of Excellence here at Accrington Stanley. Welcome to Stanley, Sundown!"

Sundown Solutions is a technology consultancy operating in the fields of digital transformation, software solutions, cyber security and Cloud computing. It is also certified Microsoft Azure Expert MSPs.

The NHS, Ministry of Defence, National Audit Office, Capita and Everyman Cinema are just some of Sundown Solutions' blue-chip clients.
