I went to Stoke Mandeville today..

Another thought - what about one of those TV programmes where a team have 24 hours to get something renovated, you know the type I mean but I can't remember any names.

What about the TV programme "Challenge Anneka".

I think that the point that has been raised about people not wanting to align themselves with shooting needs to be taken seriously. Having said that, I think we can navigate around it if we have a properly co-ordinated approach. A 'Let's get more guns out there' type of headline is going to fail straight away. A 'Disgrace of abandoned disabled Para-Olympics sportsmen' line is much more likely to be received well. If we could get a TV company interested, it would be a great chance to show the sport and its adherents in a positive light.

We need to tread a bit carefully here, chaps, because the people that own the building are helping the DTSGB in no small measure by letting them have it rent-free, and we've no wish to offend them. As is usual in charity situations, those that do contribute could, rightly, feel unfairly regarded if we go on a broad-based offensive.

For the time being, can we concentrate on assessing the situation on a practical level until we've met with the DTSGB and we truly know what's what.

That meeting is being sorted as we speak and once I know when it will take place, I'll be rounding up a posse!

Terry,

book a day off work.

Another avenue you could look down for planning and labour is the Army Royal Engineers, this would be a good little project for a troop from a Construction Squadron...if they still have them.

They have all the gear

It needs a fighting fund account opening.

There are visitors coming to the site to read this thread, some of them might want to help.

As I said; I'm only about 7 minutes from the hospital, Tel. I'll be pleased to offer whatever skills I can offer. I did 3 years at college learning plastering, but I've also spent a total of about 5 years 'in the building' as a school leaver.

Awaiting your direction, Sir!

[Terry D]

Awaiting your direction, Sir!

Terry, can you give me the entrance number and route to take to get there, mate? Give me a call if you want.

Ta.

Terry, I don't know if vandalism or break-ins occur or have occured in the past, but I'm willing to supply and fit a NSI (NACOSS) Approved alarm system to either the referb or if it did happen, a new building.

My son has a disability, but has enjoyed 10m pistol shooting for the past 8 years as he can compete on an equal footing with able bodied shooters. I've seen his pleasure and would like to help others. All less able bodied should have an equal opportunity to partake in the sport of their choosing, in the best possible surroundings.

Keep me informed please.

Funny you should say that, Bob...

Your kind offer is noted and logged, mate.

Thanks for that.
