Busy at bowls this week! Great to meet the lovely Caroline from Care UK and Dolphin Indoor Bowls were presented a plaque in recognition of their support of BOWRA Foundation 😁💪⭐ #BOWRAFoundation #indoorbowls #community #strokesurvivors #veterans #braininjury #rehabjourney

The BOWRA Foundation is delighted to share that Talbot Village Trust has awarded us a generous grant of £7,310 to fund our activities at Hamworthy Park throughout 2025. #TalbotVillageTrust #BOWRAFoundation #HamworthyPark #Rehabilitation #Active #StrokeSurvivor #BrainInjury

It was great to host our Patron and see some veterans joining us alongside our Buddies, but the show was stolen by our newest member to the BOWRA curling team, little Frank. 🥌👏 #StrokeRecovery #CurlingForHealth #StayActive #IndoorCurling #BOWRAFoundation #BournemouthBowlingClub

Kevin suffers from left-sided weakness and fatigue as a result of a stroke he suffered in 2022. We were recently able to offer Kevin an unforgettable experience —a Scorpion Tank Driving Experience, generously donated by BLOC.

We are a Dorset-based charity dedicated to supporting people living with the lasting effects of stroke and brain injury. Through practical activities, we help rebuild confidence, independence, and resilience, empowering individuals alongside the Armed Forces Community. 💙

This week, veterans & stroke survivors joined us for a brilliant session at Upton Country Park! We enjoyed a peaceful walk through the stunning grounds, followed by a fun game of boules in front of historic Upton House.

BOWRA Foundation is delighted to welcome Lieutenant General Sir Freddie Viggers KCB CMG MBE DL as our Patron! 🎉 With his support and shared vision, we’re excited to strengthen our efforts and continue making a meaningful difference.

Our first session of 2025 had a fantastic turnout—it was great to see all your smiling faces! 😄🎉 A new year is a great opportunity to set goals, it was inspiring to hear some of your personal goal-setting yesterday. 💪 We're here to support you every step of the way!

Happy New Year from Team BOWRA! #happynewyear #newyearsamerules #community #empoweryourrecovery #2025herewecome
