Disabled fanciers

[Pompey Mick]

I have been contacted by my local neighbourhood news reporter for information for an article she is preparing for a disabled newsletter. She would like to feature pigeon racing as an alternative sport for disabled people to participate in. She had recently produced an article on our ETS grant and could see the potential of Pigeon Racing providing a sporting outlet for the disabled.

If anyone could give any current information on fanciers with disabilities  and photos suitable for inclusion in this article please contact me on  my Email and I will forward it on.
