About the BKKS
The British Koi-Keepers' Society was founded in 1970 by a group of like minded people who shared a common love for Nishikigoi
(Koi). Formed at a time when information about these wonderful creatures was thin on the ground, the Society provided its members with a means of sharing experiences and gaining knowledge.
It is difficult to imagine in today's technological age how hard it was for our early pioneers to obtain that knowledge, but long before the Internet age and indeed, any specialist Koi Magazines, the BKKS had solved that problem and had launched its own magazine, founded several regional Sections, and hosted the first National Koi Show.
Today, the Society broadcasts it's activities and information via pages hosted by Koi magazine. It still provides a National Koi Show which held its 30th anniversary in 2005. We are currently working with our Government departments, DEFRA & EFRA on the Animal Welfare Bill.

Adding info on BKKS
This area looks great Gareth, is there a way we could incorporate the last decade or so of Grand Champions or would that be best to leave in Gallery area ?
Be nice to have like a wall of fame for the previous winners either with names or something, only a thought.

They will be added...
First to the Gallery - then I need to add a National Show section, so they are probably best to go into that.

Hi
Gareth
WE were looking for information of the HSC about what it's structure is etc but could only find one mention of both sub commitee's with no links.
Is this an oversight or is the information in your jobs pending tray and will appear at a later date.
Perhaps you could let our HSC know at the AGM tomorrow so that he can let us know at our next meeting, saving you getting back to us and not creating any extra work load by replying to us.
Keep up the good work.
