We are now on Easy Fundraising. Here’s How you can support us…

This week, the committee agreed to register the club on the Easy Fundraising Platform, which allows us to raise money when our supporters shop online. Easyfundraising partners with over 8,000 brands who will donate part of what you spend to a cause of your choice. It won’t cost you any extra. The cost is covered by the brand.

So how do I get involved?

The first step is to download the easy fundraising app or create an account online. You will then be asked to choose a cause to support, simply search for “Wyre Forest Company of Archers”.

Enable the donation reminder in your account settings so you’ll always be notified if you’re shopping on a site that is enrolled in the scheme.

Already registered? Change the cause you support.

To change the cause you support, log in and select the account button. Then select “change the cause I support”.

What will it look like when I’m shopping?

When you open an eligible site, a box will appear reminding you to enable donations. Click the big yellow button and you’re all done!

You can also track your donations and how much you have raised in the app or online. Email updates are available, but you can always unsubscribe.

Well done to all to our WFCA archers at Malvern and especially since we won the Centreshot trophy for winning the team at the 2024 Malvern Nationals and CWAA Novice Tournament on the 21st of July!!

The 42nd Open Western was our first tournament at our new grounds at Stourport Cricket & Rugby Club. It was a successful day with no major problems and our club was proud to welcome people to our first tournament since moving.

Thankfully it was bright, sunny and warm all day and afterwards everyone was welcomed to sit in under the marquee for the raffle and presentation. The bar was also opened for fresh cold drinks for the afternoon and was quite welcome after a long day of shooting.

Of course, the 42nd Open Western couldn’t have happened without the great organisation of our Tournaments Officer, Melissa, as well as the field party and the judges, Adam and Jasmin, as well as the field captain and lord paramount. Photographs of the competition were taken by Brian Clarke. Also thank you to everyone else who helped out.
