This is a short round-up of recent developments relating to our internet presence.
DSP on
Flickr: disabledshootingproject
A photograph album has been set up
on Flickr, illustrating and explaining many aspects of disabled target
shooting. The hope is that it will encourage disabled people into the
sport when they see how it is done, particularly by shooters with disabilities
similar to their own. More images will be added as they become available;
I am very keen to include as many different disability+discipline combinations
as possible. Photographs of helpful pieces of equipment,
disabled-friendly facilities, etc. will also be added.
Obviously any contributions of
suitable photographs will be most welcome. If you are able to submit any
please remember to make sure that everyone featured in them agrees to their use
on the internet, and let me know if names are to be withheld. Some
background information is always very helpful.
Please have a browse: http://www.flickr.com/photos/disabledshootingproject.
Then please spread the word about this latest addition to the DSP’s
resources wherever and however you can.
Our information pack, launched a
couple of months ago, is now available via the DSP website: http://www.disabilityshooting.org.uk/more-information/downloads/category/12-promotional-material.html
. The arrangements for accessing it are not yet perfect – I hope
we can make them slicker before too long.
QR code
We now have a QR code square which
creates a direct link to our website when scanned with a smart ‘phone. It
has been added to our leaflets and posters. A copy is attached in the
hope that you will be able to add it to any documents you produce in connection
with disabled target shooting.
In addition to all the above, there
is a lot more information and news going on to our main website www.disabledshooting.org.uk, and we’re
using Facebook and Twitter to publicise all sorts of things relating to the
project’s work. No-one can say we aren’t doing our level best to get our
message “out there”!
P.S. Please ignore any additional attachments to this
message (apart from the QR code) – they are just the graphics files!

Welcomes ALL disabilities
into a competitive mainstream sport as well as helping less able shooters to
stay in it
Never doubt that a small
group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it
is the only thing that ever has. Margaret
