with special needs such as learning difficulties by taking them on angling holidays which it uses as a `hook' for social and educational training. The charity is appealing to CM readers for help in providing a diesel minibus, or donations toward it.
The angling trips range from a summer's evening outing to a week-long camping and fishing trip in Surrey, Scotland, Suffolk and Wales.
