Clay pigeons and axes meant a great day for the Lift Industry!

Kentfield Country Estate, a small privately owned working farm estate nestled in the heart of Kent on the edge of the North Downs, was the perfect venue to host the Lift Industry Charity‘s first event of 2024 with clay pigeon shooting and axe throwing.

On the 20th April a great bunch of people from the industry came from near and far to support the charity. Teams were set up and everyone took their places at various stages throughout the designated shooting spots.

Clays were firing left and right, and the camaraderie was fantastic. The teams were all in great spirit and the gods were kind with glorious sunshine (although a little cold!)

Score cards were kept and there was a tie breaker at the end where a shoot off took place between Roger Doswell from Summit Elevators and Mike Lowe from Universal Lifting Hire Services, with Roger lifting the trophy.

In 3rd place was James Edge from Total Lifting Solutions and Callum Riches from Polar Lifts came in fourth.

A big thank you to Ian and his team at Kentfield who organised everything and made sure the guests were taken care of throughout the day.

The ladies who managed the catering supplied home grown beef burgers and refreshment before everyone headed home. It was a fabulous day making new friends, finding a new sport and supporting a great cause.
