Fastnet Landing Nets - Sponsors Angling for Youth Development

Fastnet supports the youth of today through sponsorship of the Angling for Youth Development charity by supplying AFYD trout landing nets and AFYD coarse landing nets to schools that offer children of all backgrounds and abilities the opportunity to participate in the sport of angling, thereby improving their quality of life.

The AFYD trust promotes, facilitates, and encourages partnership working between the angling community, the police and public sector agencies in areas where interest has been expressed.

When an area AFYD partnership is formed a project leader is appointed by the Trust to oversee the AFYD programmes delivery and a steering committee is formed by the partners within the area to support the programme. An instructional team is then recruited from the local community, which includes anglers and other interested parties, to deliver the programme.

The AFYD Trust assists in providing the new AFYD instructional teams training, the equipment required to deliver the programme, full copies of our courses modular lesson notes, a child protection policy, participant contracts, disclosure applications, generic risk assessments, and public liability and employer’s liability insurance.

Fastnet assists in providing the AFYD partnership with the Fastnet AFYD Trout and AFYD Coarse landing nets.

" Fastnet's support of our project not only includes supplying us with a high quality robust product but potentially an additional revenue source from sales generated from the public who can purchase the landing net online. As far as I am aware this is the first time that a tackle manufacturer has sponsored a charity in such a novel manner by promoting them as one of their products. For each net sold the AFYD trust will receive £4 to help establish further AFYD programmes throughout the UK.

All of us in AFYD would like to thank the Fastnet team for being so supportive to our cause".
