National Award
I have been honoured to be presented with a BNMA National award on December 8th for the contribution and development of martial arts in the UK, unfortunately I wasn't available to collect the award at the ceremony as we were running the first Martial arts fighting cancer seminar.
It is brilliant to be honoured in this way after all the hard work, particularly with our fund raising efforts.
This is a real honour as there are 200,000 members in the BNMA and only a small number receive an award.
Many Thanks
Jon Tilley

Martial arts fighting cancer 2002 / 03
The first of the Double Whammy seminars took place yesterday, Sunday 8th December and was a great success on a Martial arts level. On a fund raising level it could have been better, but £600 is not a bad start.
Thanks to all the fighters and Instructors who supported the event.
