During Spring of 2007 Moving Up Through Leisure was looking for day time activities that we could offer to young people who where referred through schools and who needed additional support. These activities needed to provide some sort of accreditation, to be very cheap or free as our project didn't have any money and to have a therapeutic effect by increasing confidence and self esteem.
Dreamstore was pleased to support the Wimbleball Lake angling participation programme, part of the South West Lakes Trust with access to 17 lakes within a total of 40 inland waters in Cornwall, Devon and Somerset. South West Lakes Trust is an independent charity established to encourage, promote and enhance sustainable recreation, access, nature conservation and education on their waters.
John Grooms Charity works to provide residential care and housing for disabled people, so they achieve greater independence, choice and freedom. Dreamstore was approached to support a Lifestyles Choices Project in Bedfordshire which aimed to develop a programme for disabled adults to become more involved in social, leisure, and educational activities outside their homes. In mid-July the BDAA organised a day for around 20 John Groom clients.

Dreamstore is pleased to be able to award a small grant to help The Nine Maidens Centre with the organisation of its angling activities. The money will go towards by purchasing the appropriate equipment and organising day trips sea fishing off the Cornish coast.
Dreamstore’s funding enabled all to go fishing at Carneys Pools and Blake Hall fishery, where a number caught their first fish. Visits included the Blue Planet at Ellesmere Port, where the young people learnt about fish anatomy and fish identification.
Dreamstore has provided a wide range of Browning-ZEBCO equipment to Lymm High School for a new Angling Club.

Dreamstore provided a small grant to Westhaven School, Weston-super-Mare to book the British Disabled Angling Association team of coaches for a fishing day at Cider Farm fishery near Brean, Somerset.

The school had struggled to find a local outdoor activity that catered for its students.
