Making the presentation to the Golden Age Home General Manager, Mrs Sonia Foster Fobes, was JRA Pistol Captain Mr Paul Shoucair. Mrs Foster Forbes welcomed the gift and promised the JRA that they would be invited to visit as soon as pandemic restrictions were lifted. The donation was part proceeds of pistol events that were held during 2020.
