Virtual Fisheries Forum | The Angling Improvement Fund
Our next Virtual Fisheries Forum focusses on the latest round of the Angling Improvement Fund (AIF); offering detailed guidance on the fund and application process.
What is the AIF?
The Angling Improvement Fund (AIF) is a way of reinvesting income from fishing licence sales in projects which benefit anglers across England.
Since its launch in 2015, the AIF has made over 600 separate awards totalling over £2.4m to clubs and fisheries that aimed to improve the infrastructure of angling facilities all of which support the National Angling Strategy. Recent Projects included ways to help tackle the predation of fish stocks, improve biosecurity, encourage more people to go fishing and provided bursaries for over 200 new coaching licences.
The AIF is currently open for applications from March 11th 2022 for clubs and fisheries that are planning projects to install protection from predation by mammals and fish eating birds on their waters.
The session is free to attend and open to all. It is recommended for any clubs and fisheries wishing to learn more about the AIF, or application process.
