Casting for Recovery 2020 retreats - now open for applications

We have six fun and friendly fly-fishing retreats planned for 2020 - find out more at https://www.countryside-alliance.org/charity/casting-for-recovery-uk-ireland/apply-for-a-retreat

We provide an opportunity for women who have been affected by breast cancer treatment to learn the sport of fly fishing in a beautiful, natural setting to promote mental and physical healing. Just as importantly, the retreats offer an opportunity to meet new friends, exchange information, and have fun. Our weekend retreats are free to attendees and incorporate health and well-being support and relaxation techniques. The retreats are delivered by health care volunteers, qualified fly fishing instructors and fishing guides.

Casting for Recovery visits some truly beautiful venues across the UK and Ireland and has inspired the generous and loyal support of donors large and small. It is our mission to provide women with powerful tools for healing and to help and support them in moving forward.
