FISHING AND THE DIFFERENCE IT CAN MAKE
Fishing provides a calm, outdoor environment where pupils can relax, focus, and succeed at their own pace. It encourages patience, problem-solving, and observation, while giving every child a sense of achievement with every cast.
​
For pupils with Social, Emotional, and Mental Health (SEMH) needs, fishing offers something truly special:
​
-
Calm and focus – The gentle rhythm of casting and waiting helps reduce anxiety and improve concentration.
-
Confidence and self-esteem – Catching a fish, mastering a new skill, or simply spending time outdoors builds pride and belief in their own ability.
-
Emotional regulation – The peaceful setting and structured activity provide space to reflect and manage emotions in a safe, supportive way.
-
Connection and communication – Fishing together encourages conversation, cooperation, and trust, key life skills that extend far beyond the water’s edge.
​
Every session at Different Angle is designed to nurture confidence, resilience, and a love of nature. Our instructors are patient, understanding, and trained to adapt to each pupil’s individual needs, ensuring that every child feels valued and supported.
​
Fishing teaches more than technique, it teaches calm, confidence, and care.
