Hirwaun and District Community Angling Project
In 2015 MAFFA, supported by
Natural Resources Wales, embarked on the Hirwaun & District Community
Angling Project, the aim being to provide opportunities for groups and
organisations, such as schools, scouts, disability groups, etc., as well as
interested members of the public generally, to experience the joy of fishing
and, in this case, the art of fly-fishing.
The Association has its own qualified coaches and support volunteers to offer
guidance and tuition and we welcome inquiries from anyone, school, groups,
organisations, etc., who would like to visit Penderyn and try their hand at
fly-fishing.

The health and well-being
benefits of angling as an outdoor sport/recreation are well documented and to
undertake this project, with assistance from several funding bodies, (see
Penderyn Improvements), we have upgraded our facilities, providing access for the disabled, and are currently seeking to source a Wheely-boat which
will enable wheelchair anglers to experience fishing from a boat.
