Irish International rugby star Roger Wilson has teamed up with a specialist sports injury retailer to offer physios and sports enthusiasts an online one-stop-shop for sports injury and rehabilitation gear.

Sports Injury Warehouse (www.sportsinjurywarehouse.co.uk) is aimed at professional physios, sports injury specialists and professional sports teams right through to the sports enthusiast in the street that needs strapping or ice products.

Roger Wilson, currently a No 8 forward with Northampton Saints, said: “I have been lucky enough to play professional sport for over ten years now and have had a few knocks.

“I’ve learned a thing or two about rehabilitation and the great work physios do piecing us professionals back together.

“I thought it would be a great idea to offer them a one-stop-shop where they can purchase all the equipment they need with just a few clicks and also to provide the growing number of sports enthusiasts with a convenient online resource for specialist gear.”

Allan Withers, Managing Director of First Response Supplies who is collaborating with Roger Wilson, said: “More and more people are turning to sports such as running and we hope to provide these people with a convenient, affordable online shopping destination for products that they might need from time to time.

“Roger’s knowledge of sports injuries and rehabilitation coupled with my emergency care experience means we are well placed to source high-quality products; they have been hand-picked to ensure they are the best available and we will continue to grow the range to respond to the needs of our customers.”
