Angling Trust SW Region Development Road Shows 2014

The Angling Trust is pleased to invite you to the 2014 Angling Trust South West Development Road Shows.

The first event in Swindon on March 22nd is the first in a series of Angling Trust Development Road Shows planned across the South West this year. We would like to meet as many different people from the world of angling and help to support as much angling participation as possible throughout the region.

The development road shows will offer you the opportunity to;

• Access support for you or your angling organisations.
• Access continued professional development and training for licensed coaches.
• Meet key Angling Trust development staff and our key funding partners.
• Understand the Angling Trust participation targets.
• Bring together the angling community for the benefit and sustainability of our great sport.

If you are a club member, tackle shop, angling club, commercial fishery, volunteer or licensed angling coach there will be something that interests you at the “Angling Trust Development Road Show”.

So please pick one of the locations most local to you (see below) and come along to the free afternoon.

We look forward to welcoming you.
