Please note: On completion of the course, Archery GB will send an Instructor Award certificate to the contact details provided. This will result in the participant needing to request a permit on the Scout system, which our accessors will approve before being granted locally. Permits can be restricted depending on individual performance so that archery can still be delivered, but only under specific circumstances.
