Details: Wheelchair Anglers Fantastic Week Fishing

Ray, a wheelchair angler had a brilliant time here. He was amazed at how easy the access was to the Shower Block, the double door made it easy for the wheelchair. Ray was also able to get to all the pegs with ease.

Our Shower/ Facilities Block has a ramp leading up into it, there are 2 full body shower rooms with toilets, a microwave, two hobs, a fridge, kettle, sink and various pots, pans, cutlery, crockery. There is also SKY TV and DVD Player, plus of course, a heater for the cooler evenings. There is also the possibility of turning the seating into a double bed (if the caravan is not suitable for access)

Having Ray here reminded us of another angler we had here earlier in the year.

Roger used a mobility scooter and, my word, did he build up some speed around the Lake. He said the whole setup for disabled anglers was superb. The rest of Rogers’s Party were well impressed with him because he was taking their tea and coffee round , which meant that they didn’t have to leave their swims. Here is a picture of one of our showers & Shower Block & us having a chill out night together with Ray and friends.

We welcome people with all disabilities, Alex is in his element when out there with the guys, he is a hands on sort of guy, on the shop floor, and is there to give advice, when asked, on baits, the hot spots etc. His enjoyment comes from seeing the guys enjoy themselves, especially guys with disabilities, the joy on their faces when they catch.
