Disabled Anglers

CLICK HERE FOR A LARGE TEXT VERSION OF THIS PAGE

TVAC & SPS is always striving to improve and enhance the enjoyment of its members. The Club has amongst its members, some persons who need a little assistance to enable them to gain access to swims and venues. It is to that aim that TVAC & SPS have instigated a scheme to provide where possible, level and mud free access.

Although this scheme is in its infancy the club has already built many hard standing swims and have in many cases provided hard mud free access to these swims from the car parks such as Ice House Lake and Marchwood Lake. A purpose built car park for disabled and elderly anglers with level access to swims  has been provided at the rear of Willow lake. The project at Willow has demanded considerable physical and financial commitment to achieve.

Due to the fact that angling takes us into close proximity to deep water, steep and slippery lake and river banks and uneven access paths it is not possible or reasonably practical to provide easy access to every club venue, and to provide easy access to all our venues would be financially impossible. The club recommends that anglers with mobility problems should seek the help of others when planning to visit venues that have difficult terrain. The club also strongly recommends that persons with reduced mobility, who wish to fishing at night should not fish alone incase the angler gets into difficulties.
