WELLIES™ for Sport


Introducing countryside sporting activities to those with physical disabilities and those recovering from poor mental health.


The Air Rifle target shooting day on August 7th 2013 at Woodhouse Community Farm was about raising the profile of target shooting, working with people with physical and mental health issues. We showed that it is a sport for all which offers a safe, fun and exciting day as well as addressing stigma and allowing people to try new activities within a social and supportive group.

We have been overwhelmed with support from the airgun and airgun accessories world, which without this wouldn’t have been possible. A big thank you to all the shown companies!
