Greenwich Hospital
Funding £47,500

The BOWRA Foundation has received a £47,500 grant from Greenwich Hospital to support its work with former Royal Navy and Royal Marines personnel through physical activity and wellbeing programmes.

The grant enables the Foundation’s Veterans Activities Manager to continue promoting recovery through tailored activities that enhance mental and physical health. The funding will help expand support to more veterans and their families.

Jonathan Ball OBE, Director of Grants at Greenwich Hospital, said:

“The activities developed by the BOWRA Foundation provide a unique and much-needed 'safe space' for military veterans within their own community. Their progressive programme, which particularly attracts veterans from the Special Forces community, offers a less regimented environment where they can focus on their recovery and rehabilitation.”

Talbot Village Trust Funding £7,310

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.

This funding will enable us to continue delivering life-enhancing activities for stroke and brain injury survivors, including paddleboarding, kayaking, and trike sessions. These activities promote physical health, build resilience, and provide a safe, supportive environment for recovery and social connection.

We are deeply grateful to Talbot Village Trust for their support, which empowers us to make a meaningful difference in the lives of our beneficiaries. Thank you for helping us inspire hope and resilience in our community.

Nicholas Ashley-Cooper, the Chairman of Talbot Village Trust, said:

"Talbot Village Trust is proud to support the BOWRA Foundation and its incredible work in empowering stroke and brain injury survivors through engaging and inclusive activities. We are delighted that this funding will help create opportunities for physical recovery, resilience-building, and community connection. It is inspiring to see the impact these initiatives have on individuals’ lives, and we are honoured to play a part in supporting such meaningful work".
