Relive the success from our outstanding Holland & Holland Shooting event!
We are delighted to share with you video footage of our remarkable shooting event at Holland & Holland in September last year. 100 guests enjoyed a fun and informal day of shooting under the bright blue skies of Uxbridge just outside of London.
With fundraising high on our agenda, 10 stands provided guests with invigorating and competitive shooting, followed by a champagne reception, 3 course lunch and charity auction. Speeches were given by Stefan Wissenbach, Founder of The Magic Future Foundation, and Jim Ziolkowski, Founder of buildOn.
Our date is set for 2024 - 5th September - so please join us, and be in touch to book your team of four guns!
A STAGGERING £126,000 RAISED!
On 27TH September 2023, we hosted an exceptional clay shooting day at Holland & Holland and raised £126,000
Over 100 guests took part in a day's shooting over 10 stands with the aim of fundraising for the 100 Schools Project in memory of Oli Wissenbach.
The 100 Schools Project helps alleviate poverty through education, and Oli’s legacy has now funded the construction of 28 schools.
The Magic Foundation Shoot was a complete sell out.
