EDITORS COMMENTS
In this heartwarming print from 1966, we see Newcastle United footballers Tommy Knox, Ron McGarry, Jim Iley, and Ollie Burton engaging in an archery contest with the children of Percy Hedley School at Forest Hall in Newcastle. This image captures a beautiful moment where sportsmanship transcends boundaries. The photograph showcases the power of inclusivity as disabled and able-bodied individuals come together to enjoy a friendly competition. The smiles on everyone's faces are infectious, radiating joy and camaraderie. It is evident that these footballers have not only brought their athletic prowess but also their genuine care for others. Percy Hedley School has long been recognized for its commitment to providing quality education to children with disabilities. By participating in this archery contest, the school aims to promote physical activity and teamwork among its students while fostering relationships with local sports icons like Newcastle United players. This snapshot from the 1960s serves as a timeless reminder of the importance of creating inclusive spaces where everyone can thrive regardless of their abilities. It symbolizes unity and highlights how sport can bridge gaps between different communities. As we reflect on this powerful image captured by Memory Lane Prints' staff photographer, it reminds us that true champions extend beyond victory on the field; they inspire through acts of compassion and solidarity off it too.
