Anglers Against Cancer

9 hours ago

FIRST THE GOOD NEWS:-
I know you have All Heard, the Anglers Against Cancer Fund Raising Group, have hit our Target of £250,000 including Gift Aid for CWCUK. We have such a hard working group, wonderful supporters, who not only Sponsor Individuals, but also the Angling Fraternity who Support us by donating some Fantastic Prizes for the AAC to Raffle at our Main Event, Fishery Owners in England, France, Spain and even Thailand again donate Fishing Holidays for the AAC to Auction throughout the Year and long may they Continue giving us their support. We couldn’t do it without people like this. What a Great Team we have that’s for sure. This year we had the added bonus of Savona Provisions Ltd donating all the food for our BBQ, including dishes, knives, forks, spoons and cups, which of course saved us a massive amount of money, courtesy of Gary Edwardes who put us forward for this wonderful donation, then out of the blue Neil Staniford spoke to his MD at Sparks Transport and they paid for our Hog Roast, amazingly generous thing to arrange by 2 of our devoted Members.
NOW THE BAD NEWS:-
We arranged the date for this years event a year ago and advised CWCUK of this, Ron and I went up to Hampton Court even though Ron was still very ill, even having to go to the First Aid Tent, we were there giving our Support (after being invited) to CWCUK who had a garden set up there. We met up with several of the staff of CWCUK and again reminded them of our 4 day event (we party on the set up night), yes two of them will attend. No probs, we will bring a new cheq etc. Then on Thursday before the Event I get informed that only 1 of the Staff will be attending (no problem) on the Friday 11.30-4.30pm. Hello!! there won’t be many there, all the Anglers’s will be fishing the match. We are 100% certain WE WILL HIT £1/4 MILLION IN 4 YEARS FOR CWCUK, we need you there there on the Sunday at least so we can present the Cheque, and thank our Supporters/Anglers for all the hard work they have done, to name Just a few Darren Greenfield who only had 1 leg cycled from Orchid via 3 other lakes cycling 160 miles approx, Bruver John who cycled via an online group, cycling 5000 Km no mean feat, Nick Stroud who ran 10 miles to Orchid Lakes with a fully loaded Carp Porter Barrow, Nick Adams who recently did the Wolf Challenge ending up covered in mud from head to toe, Mike Reddy who works tirelessly year on year at North Hants Handles Raising around £2K each year, Craig Deeley who has 3 young children and a wife, but still volunteered to do odd jobs to raise money for us. Sue Bashford who makes cakes for our Shows/Events for donations, her & Roger Bashford travel miles coming to the Angling Shows all round the Country, Sue & Andy Bingham who again travel with us to work voluntarily on the AAC Store all round the UK. Marsh Pratley who gives up all his Takings over 3 days/ nights allowing the AAC to hold their Events FOC, sometimes more than once a year. Arranges the Marquee and everything involved. The Anglers taking part who give up a Days work. I could name many, many more but you get the gist.
£250,000 raised by us all in 4 years for CWCUK and they can’t put by 2 hours to come to this Event - To say I was angry is an understatement, I was fuming, to think all the hard work done and they were too busy doing other things and didn’t let us know until the day before the Event. ITS DOWNRIGHT DISRESPECTFUL, and yes you have guessed - It has been agreed they get £250,000 including Gift Aid and not a penny more. Ron & myself are in the next few weeks looking for a New Cancer Charity that will have the decency to attend our Presentations at the end of our Event at least. Yes they did apologise, but really! Enough said. It was agreed with Ron, Marsh & Myself to put up this post. To show how disappointed we all are.
Onwards n Upwards and lucky our New Cancer Charity will be with such a Hard Working Group on board 😘🤞😘👏👏🎣 ... See MoreSee Less
