Spending the morning out in the English country side, lessons and education from professional instructors and raising money for a fantastic charity - a brilliant event' comments Josh Cote.
Josh Cote who lives in London's city centre travelled to Pangbourne, located less than an hour outside of central London to the grounds at The Royal Berkshire Shooting School. The spectacular countryside boasts over 150 traps replicating high pheasants, driven grouse and coveys of partridges. 'Since expanding my business to the UK I have spent a lot of time working in the city, I've really appreciated getting out into the country to soak up the environment' adds Josh Cote. The morning's clay shoot was followed by a 3 course lunch by renowned chef Mike Robinson.

Josh Cote agrees it's a fantastic location to host networking conventions, team-building activities or charity events.
