We are not at the moment thinking about doing our usually show in July 10,only competitons and smaller themed events.Many of our members are happy to join in with other local clubs to help run competitions and shows as this helps promote the hobby in the south of England, as many of our members have expericence in such events. Please ask !
This might change in the future but the cost of running big shows and the area have made it un-realistic for the forseeable future.
