Info for Veterans attending...

Our Monthly Veterans Respite and Recovery Event is being combined with the fishing match, so Veterans with any concerns or issues are very welcome to attend the fishing match and see the Valkyrie team there.


Any Veterans who haven't fished before or haven't got their own gear, we have plenty to lend if you want to have a go. Just let us know that you want to attend by sending us a message.

James presents last years winner Jamie with the first ever Valkyrie Dangler Shield!

As anglers we all know the mental health benefits fishing brings to us.


Your support last year managed to help us raise a whopping £275 and helped us finish off the kit we need to take Veterans and Wellbeing groups out fishing.


Funds raised from this year's pot will be split equally between Valkyrie and the top 3 anglers.


The winner will also take home the Valkyrie Dangler Shield for the year and have the opportunity to add their name to it. In addition they will receive a day of expert rod and pole fishing tuition from licensed coach Ian Mcnamara.


Arrangements as follows:


Meet 09:00 at the Café at Wold View Fisheries to draw pegs. (Please do not arrive before 08:45).


The site has hot food and toilet facilities available and is accessible for people with disabilities.
