Aims and Donations
:: The primary aim is to help the disabled and those needing assistance to return to fishing. Nationally we will collect and collate names and contact numbers of people needing our help and assistance, and people willing to give that assistance. These will be cross referenced and introduced through the "Buddy" system register.

:: The secondary aim is to offer advice and guidance in general to fisheries and venues in regards to access and suitability for the disabled angler. Where appropriate we will refer them to an appropriate advisory agency in their area.

:: The third aim is to (where ever possible) promote angling as a healthy, beneficial pastime for everyone, regardless of experience or ability.This will be done by supporting less privileged groups enabling them to participate in organised events.This will be done by offering to conduct "Angling for all" seminars to schools and youth clubs.By offering to conduct "Angling for all - It can be done" seminars and demonstrations to disabled clubs and assiciations.

::Please help us to make a difference, your donation will be put to good use no matter how big or small. Thank you.

    I have found finding sponsorship one of the most hardest things on this planet. I know times are hard and its tough on everybody at the moment but what I dont understand is why many people you contact just ignore you…a nice reply saying “Sorry but at this moment in time…bla bla bla…but to just be ignored I find rude and offensive.

    Ok rant over…on the other side of the coin I have been trying to get a bait sponsor….a couple of the companies did reply saying sorry cant help but we will give you a few bits for the Reels on Wheels festival later in the year….so to them I say “Thank You”

    Now we have 3 companies who are thinking of giving us bait for the world carp classic…it does come to money as the event is over 6 days and there are 2 of us fishing….so my faith in mankind has been restored…

    I hate begging but my Dad used to say…”if you dont ask, you dont get”  very true…

    I now have 2 things I need to try and get and I will write about those later.

    So to all those who have helped so far…a massive thank you from me and the organisation.
