we must do the best we can with the generous funds bestowed upon us de5Plte the Womd's hardships,
ensuring any donations are well spent to better the lives of those affected by disabilty.
Dlsability Schools
Our disability schools fishing project expands especially at our flagship venue, Ladybower reser¥oir, where we
have access to two specially adapted boats designed and buift to BDAA specffjication, The addition of the
floating fishing and kayak pontoons repurposed from Patsul park fishery has enhanced the bank fishing
offering pleasure and independence. The completion of the education building provides shelter and additional
learning of fishing prior to actually going out of the reservoir. The next stage is to improve aC￿sS to these
buildings. which is in the 2025126 project funding.
In addttion, Midlands schools also continue to grow using Albrighton Moat Trust and WanNickshire fisheries to
deliver our SEN schools, fishing activits'es. By funding local schools. these days, every w￿k the children get to
have access to fishing, sensory gardens bird watching via the indoor monitors.
The Roger Webb Dlsabillty Carp Challenge
2025126, we hope to make the Roger Webb memorial in Bedfordshire in memory of a very special trustee.
Planning for Ihe memorial event is once again in the capable hands of Paralympian and trustee Matt Skelhon,
who has plans to bring in more participants and a range Of impairments for 2024.
SEA FISHING support (Wetwheels)
2025 we continue to provide a variety of fishing, induding sea fishing with Wetwheels Yorkshire and South as
a charity in their own right so V￿ can continue our premous support with equipment and BDAA sea fishing
trips, especially from the historic Whitby bay.
Fishing for Heroes
Our fishing for heroes, projects supports ex-service members and their families with PTSD, physical and
mental illness. Mainly through fly fishing for trout on the chalk streams and southern trout fams. Additionalty,
we work with other charities through Ladybower fisheries where veterans can enjoy boat or bank fishing. We
hope to introduce kayak fishing with support from veteran rehabilitation units in Loughborough this year as
they tried fishing via their physio therapist unit who came to risk assess the facilities last year.
Equipment
As the Wortd changes, we have needed to look closer to home for 2ffnrdabla. 2d2D*od fiehi
no
lllvli aFf uoing tnrougn our uesigTI 3nu use OT iocai éngineering skills to create automated electric fishing

Our hope is we can raise enough funds to provide an additional boat at Ladybower as demands continue to
grow.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Flnanclal positlon
In the year the charity raised £243,961 from donations (2023 £206,509 and £28 from Bank Interest (2023 £23)
During the year the charity spent £276,684 (2023 £235,586)
At the balance sheet date the charity had assets of £41.793 (2023 £74,488)
Reserves pollcy
The Charity's reserve policy is to maintain sufficient level of reserves to enable nonnal operating activities to
continue over a period of up to 12 months should a shortfall in Income occur and to take account of potential
risks and contingencies that may arise from ts'me to tlme.
FUTURE PLANS
Plans are undenKay including..
Dlsablllty centres of excellence".
1.As Presldent
l am very proud of our trustees who continue to work despite thelr family issues, héalth and fitnégs concem8:
The "Mary-mo and Codie-mo have both had a cosmetic and equipment make over with many children piloting
the boats from the wheelchair operating posrtions and operators able to override in a moment, adults losing
their driving licences have been operating the boat wrth t8ars of joy as the alternatives to crowded roads on
the open water. We need a third boat, along with new floating pontoons to accommodate the growing number
of partlcipants and those who prefer a more solid surface than the boats.
2. Ladybower reservoir Derbyshire:
This venue with ideas from both BDAA and local disabilty groups continues to evofve, BDAA has completes
the new teaching centre investing in the infrastructure and now focusing on the t8ch so children waiting for
their turn on the boats can also watch the live streamed filming of others catching fish out on the water
inGreasing the excitement.
3. Equlpment
Equipment has been a challenge with lack of parts due to the world shortage of some essential parts, however
nothing stops us finding other ways and as such we have managed to work with local engineers to produce
our own supply of powered reels and rod holders ensuring the continuation of adapted equipment to help
overcome difficulties using orthodox fishing tackle. we are seeing the impact of these most important pieces of
equipment,
4. Plaffomi3
vui progratn QT aaapiea accessiDie pla￿OrMS remains In dèmand. so rather than us actiV8ty looking for
locations, we encourage applicants to approach us so we can best use the funding prov5ded and assess the
need.
