Community Funds
"The Anglers Choice, believe in giving back to the communities that inspire us. Through our dedicated fundraising initiatives, we support two meaningful causes: Autism and UK Veterans."
"We are committed to improving the lives of others
through angling experiences"
Funds raised will go directly towards hosting social events at some of the UK’s top-quality lakes, creating opportunities for veterans and supporters to come together in a welcoming environment. These events are about more than just fishing — they provide the chance to build friendships, share experiences, and enjoy the thrill of catching stunning fish in beautiful surroundings. By supporting this fund, you’re helping us create safe, memorable spaces where community and wellbeing come first.
As part of our commitment to giving back, we’ll also be offering veteran‑specific discount codes through our partner network, along with exclusive giveaways designed just for the veteran community. These initiatives ensure that those who have served not only feel recognised but also gain access to meaningful benefits that extend beyond the water.
We have a showcase event booked up for September 11th 2026 where 9 lucky Veterans will be visiting Hacche Moor Fisheries.
The Top & Bottom lake of this prestigious, exclusive venue have been booked, the V.F Special Range of bait & merchandise is directly funding this event.
Autism Fund
Angling holds considerable therapeutic potential for individuals with autism, it effectively targets key aspects of the triad of impairment – social interaction, communication difficulties, and repetitive behaviours. By providing a calm, structured environment, angling encourages individuals with autism to engage at their own pace, fostering confidence and reducing anxiety.
Funds raised will be invested directly into community‑specific projects , designed to spark awareness and conversation around the therapeutic power of angling. In addition, we’ll be working closely with local communities to host social days at commercial day‑ticket lakes across the country. These events will not only raise awareness of the benefits of fishing for individuals with autism, but also provide newcomers with the chance to experience the sport first‑hand — building confidence, connection, and a sense of belonging by the water.
Our dedicated product line will proudly carry eye‑catching messaging and bold packaging designed to shine a spotlight on this amazing project. Every item will not only represent The Anglers Choice brand but also serve as a conversation starter — raising awareness of the causes we support and drawing attention to the vital role fishing can play in community wellbeing. By choosing these products, supporters aren’t just buying quality gear; they’re helping to spread the message and directly funding initiatives that change lives!
Veteran Fund
At The Anglers Choice, we believe fishing is more than a pastime — it’s a pathway to healing, connection, and purpose. For veterans, time on the water can ease stress, support mental health, and rebuild camaraderie. With your support, we can expand these opportunities, creating a community where every cast strengthens lives and every contribution makes a difference!
