Latest update 7th June 2011

Gundog Club directors, Pippa Mattinson and Sam Austwick are delighted to announce that the Gundog Club is now under the ownership and management of a new charity: The Gundog Trust.  All proceeds from the sale of training, books, field tests etc through the Gundog Club will now go to the charity, and be used to fulfil the charity's mission and formal objectives.

Pippa says "its always sad to let go of something you have worked so hard on, but we will remain on board as two of the five trustees, and we are confident that moving to charitable status is the best way for the Gundog Club to continue to fulfil its important mission of helping all gundogs and their owners"
