Shooting with Pride Have-a-Go

YAS Queen! To celebrate Pride Month 2026, York Archers is running an open archery have-a-go session to support LGBTQ+ charities. No prior experience is needed, and all equipment will be provided!

Following an introduction and safety briefing, attendees will get to shoot three arrows at a time against our targets. Please note that you must be supervised 1-to-1 by our coaches while shooting.

All money raised will be donated to the following charities:

• Generate: Supporting the transgender, non-binary and gender-diverse community in and around York.

• Just Like Us: Working with schools and young people across the UK to ensure LGBT+ young people can thrive.

• akt: The national LGBTQ+ youth homelessness charity.

There will also be a charity bake sale!
