Fishing TV star helps raise £20,000 for kids meals
MONSTER Carp TV star Ali Hamidi has helped provide 80,000 free meals for kids following a fundraising competition that generated a whopping £20,000 for the worthy cause.
Run in partnership with FareShare UK, the campaign offered prize bundles of Mainline bait, a 48-hour fishing retreat in Essex and a personal visit from Ali and his TV co-star Tom Dove.
Ali said:
“I can’t thank enough everyone in our fishing community who took part in helping to prevent our nation’s kids from going hungry. Next time I’d love to do something bigger and provide 500,000 meals.”
