We’re celebrating the launch of our exciting new partnership with Anglers Against Pollution through a collection of limited-edition T-Shirts, with £5 from every sale going to vital projects across the UK (or just England, tbc) to help protect our waterways.
Anglers Against Pollution is the Angling Trust's campaign to fight for clean rivers, lakes and seas. At the heart and soul of the campaign is a network of over 600 volunteers who have been trained and equipped to carry out regular pollution checks on the rivers and estuaries they fish.
This nationwide water quality monitoring network checks for changes to pollution levels throughout the year so they can fully understand the issues facing the rivers they love. This data is then used to fight local campaigns and identify sources of pollution. All the data they capture is also uploaded to an app, providing Angling Trust with a comprehensive overview of the state of our nations rivers and estuaries which is used to lobby for change at government level and to hold polluters to account for the damage they do.
In short, the campaign aims to help protect the ‘weird fish’ we all love, right around the country.
