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"
