PROMATIC INVEST IN THE FUTUREPromatic has always prided itself in leading the shooting industry in encouraging and supporting the younger generations to get into shooting. For example, our long-term sponsorship of BASC with their national events, the Schools Sporting Championship and the University Sporting Championship. This year we focused on supporting colleges

who are training students for a future career in the countryside.

For years we have sponsored and supported the likes of the Royal Agricultural University and Harper Adams, which we continue to do today, and now we have widened our involvement to colleges that are training future gamekeepers and in careers that being able

to shoot is a fundamental requirement. Our aim is to give students the opportunity to gain practical experience in gun handling and safe shooting that will help them in their future career when working on shooting estates in the UK and abroad.

We are now supporting colleges the length and
