Help The Recovery of the Wye Salmon
The Wye was once one of the greatest salmon rivers in England & Wales; that is no longer the case. Our objective at Wye Salmon Association is to return it to its former pre-eminence. Success in this undertaking would produce a valuable river for owners, leaseholders and anglers alike.
Social, economic and technological changes since the 1970’s continue to have a dramatic and negative impact on the potential for Wye fisheries to recover. And, while laudable work has been undertaken in reviving river habitat: additional man-made intervention is required, to support and give any chance of large scale recovery of this river.
Recent decisions by NRW have not blunted our enthusiasm and we therefore propose a new agenda.
-
Request government agencies enable private initiative and allow us to determine recovery strategies rather than dictating them themselves
-
Adoption of a privately-led Semi-natural Release (SNR) programme
-
Adoption of a privately-led egg box release programme.
-
Continued support for proven habitat improvement projects through the Wye & Usk Foundation
Our first step is to ask you, to demonstrate support for these efforts. The support will start in the form of a petition, requesting government agencies remove restrictions on private, third party, stocking initiatives and restrict their involvement to reasonable licencing of such work.
Man-made intervention has made this mess. We are not going to fix it without your help.
If you are worried about how NRW hatchery decisions will affect any other rivers in Wales or across the UK then please support us.

To stop the Royal British Legion closing the 4 Break Centres across the UK and Handy van Service.
After their recent Stategic Review the Royal British Legion have proposed to increase the number of case workers to help beneficiaries. In turn they plan to close the 4 UK Break Centres Alderson House, Bennet House, Byng House and Somerset Legion House along with the Handy Van Service. The Break Centres provide an invaluable opportunity for members of the armed forces community to avail of an all inclusive break for some well deserved respite. A break can give someone a safe sanctuary to meet

Shut down Mclaren Circus, South Africa
Mclaren circus uses animals such as lions, snakes, tigers, camels and many more. These animals should not be used as entertainment and these animals deserve to have a better life and be free from that horrible business. The animals deserve to be respected and to be free to live in the wild instead of cages for peoples entertainment. THIS NEEDS TO STOP.

F1TV and Sky should air F2 and F3 live testing
There once was a time we had to scamble for every little piece of information came through from F1 preseason testing: a new nose, a team hopelessly behind on schedule or a double diffuser. An online article hours or sometimes days later. But that all has changed with F1TV and Sky airing the preseason testing (partly) live.But not so for Fprmula 2 and Formula 3. Altough both feeder series are aired by F1TV and Sky, preseason testing isn't.And it's time for that, with the popularity of F3 and even

Jack is not a dangerous dog!
Hi My dog Jack is a lovely big boofhead who has stood in front of snakes and barked and chased off foxes to save chickens. He is not a big scarey aggressive dog who attacks people. He loves children. He loves the old neighbours next door. From being a baby I have made him take treats from my mouth so he learned early on to be gentle taking treats, as I didn't want his big mouth snatching treats from little hands. Note if he was a big bitey dog he would try attack/ bite snakes or foxes - but his
