Haydock Park Farm Project. Install disabled/less abled fishing platforms on Cow Hey Dam, install hard packed paths and walkways to the platforms.
Install Lads and Dads boardwalk platforms on Park1 and Park 2 pools.
Install 20 new wooden platforms on Lagoon to replace the paving flag pegs (completed, end of 2020).
Last spring (2020) I submitted a request and detailed plans for a development grant through the Environment Agency. This was to supplement the idea’s, upkeep and projected development of Haydock Park Farm Complex. I am happy to report to all the members that I have been successful on behalf of Newton-le-Willows Anglers Association in securing a grant. A huge proportion of this proposal and award being successful is due to the work of the other committee members and the hard work that has been already achieved on this complex by members. The installation of the disabled access plastic platform and access path on Cow Hey, the installation of 20 wooden platforms on Lagoon and the general upkeep of this complex had hugely improved the chances of being supported financially by the EA. There is still work I have to do with the EA funding team, but we have officially been awarded this backing.
Planning and capital equipment purchase is ongoing and work should, hopefully, start as soon as we are allowed. Thanks to all the members who have come forward and offered their time in advance of this project starting.
