SOCIETY

The Society was founded in 1934 and is now believed to be the oldest active fishkeeping club in the U.K. At the present time we have about seventy members of whom about forty regularly attend our monthly meetings. We are members of the Federation of British Aquatic Societies.

We hold monthly meetings with talks and slideshows, run annual pond and home aquaria competitions. We ran an annual exhibition for many years but are now not very active in the show world. We did however take part a few years ago in an exhibition at Alexandra Palace. We run coach trips to places of interest to our members in the U.K. and about once every eighteen months travel to Europe for a few days or even a week. In recent years we have been to Amsterdam, Cologne and Normandy and The Hague.
