| Our main charity is Archery for the Disabled and each year we hold a Tournament for Disabled Archers at the Royal Toxophilite ground at Burnham. This attracts great interest, bringing entrants from all over the United Kingdom. The disabilities of the competitors are wide ranging in both type and severity.
We are pleased to award grants to newcomers to archery as well as to experienced and elite archers. Anyone wishing to apply to the Company for assistance to purchase equipment should contact our Honorary Almoner Lesley Agutter or click here to download a grant application form. Click here to see one of the nicest thank you letters we have received recently, and here for another. We were proud to have been able to assist members of the GB Paralympic Archery Squad in both Athens in 2004 and Beijing in 2008 and are now looking to London 2012 - and on to Rio 2016! But we also help less prestigious disabled archers - click to read about the results of our grant to the Greenwich Arrows. |
