News & EventsHardy & Greys Support Fishing For Heroes
18/08/2010Hardy & Greys are pleased to be supporting ‘Fishing For Heroes' a charity that helps military veterans suffering from emotional or psychological problems relating to them having been involved in active service. The Fly fishing courses offered are a proven way to provide respite, relaxation and support that can help develop life skills which enable the veterans to help themselves in the future.  Fishing For Heroes intends to help show them that they are not alone and that their service for us was, and still is, appreciated.
Any veteran from any of the three armed forces, of either sex, can apply for help. Although the current campaigns are foremost in people's minds, veterans from any era or conflict are eligible.
Hardy & Greys are involved with the sponsorship of the Fishing For Heroes 2010 UK Still Water Trout Fishing Championship alongside principal sponsor Fly Fishing & Fly Tying Magazine. A series of nine regional competitions and a Grand Final, to be held at Lechlade Trout Fishery on the 21st November 2010, are aimed at raising both awareness and funds for the charity.
