Milton Keynes Disabled Angling Club

The Milton Keynes Disabled Angling Club was formed to encourage people with disabilities to fish. This includes those who used to fish and those who want to try it for the first time.

Their equal oportunity policy makes disability include any loss of facilty due to the passing of time. The club boasts three licensed coaches.

Your £5.00 per year membership entitles you to free tuition. Non members can be taken out for training sessions but the coaches ask for a donation (cash or kit) to the club.

They have a couple of special venues apart from cheap membership of MKAA and access to all their waters.

Carers are welcome and if they join are entitled to the same facilities as their charges.
