It's nice to see a positive article in the BBC, she's an exceptional shooter. I'm also pleased to see that they have published that she has found the UK shooting community to be very welcoming and supportive, with negative comments coming from outside of shooting circles rather than from within.
Worth noticing that the bottom right has a link to find a club if people are interested!
