Charities Supported
As a family-run business in the heart of Bettws, we know the importance of community spirit and giving back. In our 35+ years of perfecting the art of shooting, we have seen first-hand the enormous generosity our amazing industry and clients have shown in coming together to support.
Each season, we choose a special charity that is close to our hearts to raise funds for. Our chosen charity for the 2024/25 season was:
Severn Hospice is a charity based in the United Kingdom, providing specialist care and support free of charge to individuals and their families living with incurable illnesses in Shropshire, Telford & Wrekin, and Mid Wales.
Established in 1989, the hospice offers a range of services including inpatient care, day services, hospice at home support, and bereavement counselling. They rely heavily on community fundraising, donations, and volunteers to deliver their vital services, needing to raise a significant portion of their operating costs annually. Severn Hospice aims to improve the quality of life for patients and their loved ones, offering compassionate care and creating supportive environments.

£59,285 RAISED FOR THE NHS CHARITIES TOGETHER
During the Clap for Heroes one Thursday evening during the March 2020 lockdown, Bettws Hall Directors Gwyn & Ann Evans decided that more than a clap was deserved for our amazing NHS staff.
By donating a 400 bird day at Vaynor Park for the 2020/21 season, the spirit and generosity of the shooting community shone through beyond anyone's expectations. Our target of £50,000 was smashed with a grand total of £59,285 being handed over during a socially-distanced presentation on the eve of a second Welsh lockdown in October 2020.
£37,659 RAISED FOR THE LINGEN DAVIES FUND
During the course of the 2021/22 - 2023/24 seasons, the Lingen Davies Cancer Fund was our chosen shoot season charity with a number of extra events raising funds for a cause incredibly close to the heart at Bettws.
Through our 'White Pheasant Raffle', 'Amy's Bike Ride' and the incredible generosity of our shooting clients, the whole community came together to raise a grand total of £25,340.
Helen Knight of Lingen Davies kindly advised the amount raised helped the foundation take a huge step toward paying for a new CT Scanner.


£79,050 RAISED FOR THE BRITISH GAME ASSURANCE
