Arsenal Football Club has announced PruHealth and PruProtect as the club’s official health, wellness and life insurance partner.

The long-term partnership gives PruHealth and PruProtect exclusive marketing rights within the health, life and protection insurance category. This includes use of Arsenal’s brand and player imagery, access to players and management, in-stadium branding and use of Arsenal’s digital and social media platforms. The club will also provide coaches and legends to attend soccer clinics held in the UK and overseas.

The partnership will primarily be used to promote the benefits of PruHealth and PruProtect’s Vitality offering, which provides generous rewards to members who lead a healthier lifestyle.

PruHealth and PruProtect are the result of a joint venture between two large international financial services companies - Prudential plc and Discovery, a South African listed company operating in the USA, China and Singapore as well as the UK and South Africa.
