WATER FRONT FISHING AND SHOOTING...... BUDE CORNWALL .....01288 359606

Reels on Wheels (UK) Limited is a limited charity company set up to raise funds for various reasons: Charitable status will be reapplied for when we have raised £5000 (under new legislation which came into effect in April 2007). At present it is dependent on the generosity of like-minded people who support Reels on Wheels and the Buddy System concept.

:: The primary aim is to help and encourage disabled and less able anglers to get back into fishing and to encourage as many people as possible to take up fishing as a recreational, outdoor activity. Going out on the road and travelling to fisheries, clubs and venues around the UK, has been the best way of meeting people and motivating them to either volunteer their help as fishing Buddies, or getting disabled people to talk about the possibility of getting back into fishing - or even trying it out as a new hobby.

:: The secondary aim is to help and encourage clubs and commercial fisheries to improve access for all anglers, irrespective of their (dis)ability, wherever practicable. Again, going to see the venues/lakes is the only way to judge whether or not we can help.

:: The third aim is to promote angling for everybody as a healthy, beneficial outdoor pursuit, by supporting less privileged groups and enabling them to participate in organised events.

How can we do this and how much will it cost?

:: We have already been asked to help 3 commercial fisheries with the purchase of new disabled, ‘guaranteed for life’ fishing platforms to improve their accessibility, for which we need to raise£3500. These platforms cost £250 each, but are guaranteed to last 25 years.

:: We would like to donate £500 to help fund the South Cerney Disabled Angling Festival and to support it in the future. This is such an important event for disabled anglers, some of whom only fish this one weekend every year.

:: We need to raise £5000 to pay for the employment of an Administrator (who is very well qualified and dedicated) who is slightly disabled and caring for a disabled partner, who will oversee and enable the efficient day-to-day tasks for Reels on Wheels.

If you know of anyone with health/mobility issues who could benefit from the help which we offer, free of charge, please point them in our direction or get in touch.
