Apply now for help to beat invasive species
Angling organisations are being invited to apply for funds to support projects that tackle the spread of invasive non-native species and increase biosecurity at angling venues
Administered by the Angling Trust and funded by the Environment Agency from income received through the sales of fishing rod licences, the Angling Improvement Fund is making a total of £100,000 available to support improvement work.
Applications for up to £5,000 of funding are invited from clubs, fisheries and other angling-related organisations. Joint applications from clubs and fisheries that wish to undertake a project covering larger areas are also welcomed. The maximum award for these catchment projects is £10,000.
All applicants must have consulted with an Angling Trust Fisheries Support Officer before applying and should do so as soon as possible to gain the best chance of receiving advice before the closure of the application process at 5.00pm on Thursday, 14 November 2024.
