Featured AttractionsThe Angling TrustGet hooked! Experts on hand to show you how. The Angling Trust
The Angling Trust is the governing body for freshwater angling in England. They actively promote and encourage angling development from grass roots, through clubs and regional bodies to the International squads. It is a fun and healthy sport enjoyed by millions of people throughout the UK every year. Anglers not only go fishing to catch fish but also because they enjoy and appreciate the environment in which it takes place. The Coaching sessions give interesting, fun, enjoyable and interactive learning methods about how to start or get better at angling. A lot can be learned about every aspect of angling and the environment it takes place in;
Even at fairs without water visitors can still practice dry skill techniques in the fishing arena. The skills taught give people an indepth understanding of their environment and shows how to fish safely and correctly. Being Healthy – sport reduces the risk of ill health for young people. As an outdoor sport, angling contributes to maintaining a healthy lifestyle through social interaction, achievement and mental well-being. Staying Safe – angling promotes community cohesion and can help reduce youth crime, anti-social behaviour, bullying and discrimination. Organisations such as Get Hooked on Fishing, police crime prevention teams and youth services have all successfully used angling as a means of engaging with young people.
Enjoying & Achieving – It can contribute to their personal and social development and to their enjoyment of leisure time. Angling is a fun sport undertaken in a healthy environment. Making a Positive Contribution – angling engages young people in community activity, such as keeping the local pond, river or canal free of litter. It also develops their self-confidence and encourages positive behaviour and relationships.
