Things have been slow for the Trust with staff furloughed (for a proportion of each week) as a result of lockdown restricting our activities.
 
Never the less, we have been doing what we can and recently were asked for help with sell fishing tackle and tools for a lady who was hoping to move home soon. This was her her late husband’s equipment.
 
We have a number of fishing rods and reels for sale and several lots of tackle. We have reserves set for each item and will sell them on ebay or direct to local anglers if they make suitable offers.
 
All items are open to offers and can be collected from the Trust locally or we may be able to deliver if in the area. We’ve provided a guide price for anyone interested. 25% of the proceeds will come to the Trust.
