Archery experts hit charity fundriaising target at Berrow event

-

Archery experts from across the South West converged on Berrow at the weekend when a local group held a fundraising tournament.

The Coastal Archers hosted the annual Jellybow Challenge, with all profits going to the Children’s Hospice charity at Wraxall.

Among the groups taking part in Saturday’s event were Wellington Bowmen, Bowmen of Mendip, Puriton Gold, and Bristol and Golden Phoenix Archers plus local competitors from the Coastal Archers.

A total of £170 was raised for the hospice, much to the delight of organisers.

“Everyone had to wear something red and cheating was allowed in this tournament, some of which was quite outrageous! So long as it made everyone laugh, no-one minded,” one of the organisers told Burnham-On-Sea.com.

Anyone interested in archery can find out more about beginners sessions at the club’s website here.
