Awards

 

The Foundation exists to support and promote fencing in Scotland as a sport for all - but specifically targets young people.
To achieve this we embark on fund raising activities of various types and then distribute these funds to clubs and specific fencing related activities.

Since 2004 the Foundation has provided monetary assistance and sourced funding as follows:

The Foundation are immensely grateful on behalf of the fencers and clubs who have benefited, to the Awards for All scheme and the continued generosity of Ineos, and the equipment suppliers - Allstar UK and Leon Paul - who heavily discounted the equipment to us and thereby allowed us to buy more kit than we otherwise could have hope to obtain.

Since 2004 the Foundation has also provided physical assistance and benefits in kind as follows:

Year	Nature of Award	Amount	Purpose	Recipients
2004-6	Competition Support	N/A	LPJS Scottish Round	Organised by: Wallace Fencing Academy

Since 2004 Foundation members have volunteered over 4,000 recorded hours of their time to promote the aims of the Charity - often incurring personal expense to do so.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank them all on behalf of all the fencers who have benefitted and continue to benefit from their efforts.
