Angling Development (SANDS)
The Scottish Angling National Development Strategy
A national approach to sustaining angling and all its social, economic and environmental benefits across Scotland, driven by Countryside Learning Scotland.
Our Chief Executive led the Scottish Angling National Development Structure (SANDS) project to create a national angling growth and development template to be delivered through the Fishery Management Scotland (FMS), District Salmon Fishery Boards (DSFB’s) and Trusts infrastructure.
The project began the creation of a national structure that will provide the opportunity for all demographics, particularly young people from all backgrounds and abilities, to get involved in the sport of angling and all the benefits it offers.
The programme will be delivered locally through the DSFBs from a national development template including volunteer training, event organisation and the creation of angling partner clusters.
