A Message from the Chairman - Andrew Gilbert
As Chairman, I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself a little further and share what drives me in this role. I care deeply about the future of Hove Deep Sea Anglers Club โ not just as a venue, but as a community.
Over the past months, Iโve had the privilege of working closely with the staff, the committee, and many of you. What has stood out most is the passion people have for this club: the fishing, the friendships, the history, and the sense of belonging that makes this place special.
My focus is simple: to ensure the club is safe, welcoming, well-run, and always moving forward. The improvements weโve made recently โ from compliance upgrades to staffing support, from new food offerings to operational changes โ are all part of building a stronger foundation for the future.
None of this happens alone. Itโs the result of staff stepping up, members offering feedback, and a shared desire to make the club the best it can be. Thank you for your continued support, your patience through the busy summer, and your enthusiasm for everything weโre building together.
