Keep WSSAA Rolling – Fund a New Minibus

Help Save the West Sussex & Surrey Angling Academy – They Need a New Minibus

For nearly two decades, the West Sussex & Surrey Angling Academy (WSSAA) has been a lifeline for thousands of young people, adults with additional needs, veterans, and those at risk of exclusion or isolation. Founded by the passionate and dedicated Graham Cridland, this small but mighty charity uses the therapeutic power of angling to build confidence, improve mental health, teach vital life skills, and offer hope to those who need it most.

But now, WSSAA faces a serious challenge. Their trusted minibus – essential for transporting students and equipment to fishing locations – has been condemned. Without it, the Academy simply cannot deliver its life-changing programmes. From children with autism or ADHD to ex-service personnel dealing with PTSD, so many rely on this support – and losing it would be devastating.

We’re raising funds to buy a safe, reliable minibus so Graham and his volunteer team can continue their incredible work across Sussex and Surrey. Every donation, big or small, will help get WSSAA back on the road and keep this vital community resource alive.

Please donate if you can – and help us keep casting hope for those who need it most.
