Help Elliot Get To Croatia 2018
My name is Elliot Fay, I suffer from a Muscle and Nerve wasting conditon called 'Charcot-Marie-Tooth Syndrome (CMT) which effects my fine motor skills, fatigue, balance and general every day life.
Fishing is my passion and a huge part of my life, when I am out fishing, my daily struggles are put behind me. I never let my disabilty get me down, this has allowed me to be able to compete at a high level, Including being part of the England Disabled Angling Team, which saw me achieve an Individual Silver Medal in Serbia last year, narrowly missing out on becoming World Champion by just 70g on weight countback!
I also have National titles to my name, winning the Disabled National Championships in 2016, and placing second in 2017, just missing out!
2017 for me was a year of just missing out, second at the World Champs, second at the National Champs, Second on a White Acres Festival, second on a local league, and many other second places!
Maybe 2018 will bring me the luck I need to go one better and with your help, I might just be able to do that!
For 2018 the World Championships are in Croatia, on a similar venue which really suits my style of fishing. Unfortunately, as last year, the team is unfunded so we all have to cover the cost ourselves, If you or anybody you know may able to give, even if its just a few pounds, you will be a big part of my journey to world champs and will be appreciated a lot.
