The Get Fishing Fund supports organisations to deliver a programme of angling activities. Supported activities should aim to help get more people into fishing and retain them within the sport.
Building on the success of the original launch of the fund four years ago, the Environment Agency and Angling Trust have announced an additional £150,000 of investment. This is to encourage more people to give fishing a go for the first time in 2025.
Grants of up to £2,500 are available to benefit angling-based projects. The funding can be used to help purchase equipment, fishing tackle and resources to run fishing events and activities to give people the opportunity to try fishing.
Applications are accepted from angling clubs, fisheries, charities, schools and local authorities. Activities undertaken because of receiving funding must be delivered on freshwater fisheries where angling requires a fishing licence.
The deadline for applications is 6 December 2024.
