BASC South West

BASC has welcomed the findings of a new report from the House of Commons Environment Audit Committee on halting biodiversity loss.

One of Britain’s biggest supermarkets, Sainsbury’s, has teamed up with the British Association for Shooting and Conservation (BASC) to promote the eating of game.

Sporting shooters will get the chance to win the most expensive gun BASC has ever offered in the last of its special centenary prize gun draws.

How would you like to win a celebrity chef for an evening, or what about winning a place at one of the country’s top cookery schools? Well these are just two of the prizes in competitions being organised to promote this year’s National Taste of Game Week (15-22 November).

BASC’s Young Shot members will have their chance to have their say about the Association this month.

The Conservative party has praised the conservation work done by all those involved in shooting and angling for their positive impact on the countryside.

The government ministers responsible for shooting sports renewed the Labour Party’s commitment to support shooting at the Rural Reception at the Labour conference in Manchester last week.

A special cartridge, which has been produced in conjunction with Eley Hawk Ltd to mark BASC’s centenary year, has gone on sale.
