I started FFDKids to take disabked children and young cares fishing because my son Natty wanted to take his friends, he has Right Hemiplegic cerebral palsy and finds it hard using a rod and reel.

I decided to start the group to help other disabled children and young carers (siblings of disabled children or children of disabled parents) to get them out for a while and try a relaxing and fullfilling hobby.

One lad that came was pretty much a loner, didn't talk to people... not even him mum, he just wanted to sit in his room and play Xbox but now he is a regular on the bank with his own equipment and interacting with loads of people, he loves fishing and won't stop going on about it... what a great change!

A lot of his friends are also disabled, hence the group.
