Please see the below message from Steve Copson with very sad news regarding his wife Kim Copson, who many within the county would have known well through Leicestershire or visiting Quicks.
”It is with a sad and broken heart that I have to let you know that my wife Kim, passed away in the early hours of Thursday morning the 3rd August after a short illness.
Most of you will have known Kim through our joint love of archery, either as a County, Regional or National Archer herself, or as a County or Regional coach, or even as a National team manager.
For many she would probably have been the person that sold you your archery equipment when we both worked at Quicks in Sapcote.
Kim will be sorely missed by our families, and close friends, but most of all by me”.
