fletchers.org.ukAbout Fletchers Trust
The Fletchers Trust is dedicated to enabling disabled people to participate fully in archery, supporting individuals from newcomers to elite national archers. Their mission is rooted in empowerment and inclusion, with a philosophy that archery can break down barriers and build confidence, resilience, and community connection. As one of the few funders solely focused on disability archery, they aim to relieve poverty and hardship while advancing physical and mental health through inclusive amateur sport. The Trust values organisations that demonstrate archery expertise and a strong commitment to inclusive participation.
What Fletchers Trust funds
The Trust funds equipment, capital works, and events that make archery accessible to people with physical disabilities, mental health conditions, and visual impairments. They help clubs improve disabled facilities, contribute to competition costs, and support adaptive equipment that enables independence. Their main focus is supporting archers with disability, including those who are visually impaired, and awards are made to both newcomers and elite national archers. All funded activities take place across England, Wales, and the City of London.
Who can apply
The Trust awards grants to individuals, community groups, schools, and registered charities. Beneficiaries include archers with a range of physical and mental disabilities, and the Trust values organisations with archery expertise and a commitment to inclusive participation. They support archers across England, Wales, and the City of London, and there is no religious restriction on applicants.
What Fletchers Trust doesn't fund
The Trust does not fund projects outside of archery, nor do they support core operating costs or unrestricted funding. They do not support generalist poverty relief beyond disability sport contexts.
How they like to fund
The Trust welcomes unsolicited applications and provides funding specifically for equipment, capital works, and events that support disability archery. They fund both one-off items and ongoing participation costs such as competition fees.
