Treasurer - Simon Pickles

[email protected]
As Treasurer, my main role is to ensure the Club is run on sound financial lines and to ensure that new members can access all areas of the website, as well as updating content.
I have kept Polands since 2011 and been showing since 2013.  Although the big prizes have so far eluded me, the friends I have met along the way are making it all worthwhile.  The Poland Club is here to cater for all people who keep the breed, so if I can be of any help or if you have any ideas on how to increase club revenue please give me a shout.
Committee Member - Paul Lutkin

I joined the Poland club during the Spring of 2000 and started to breed and show shortly after that. Having grown up on the family farm i have always been involved with poultry. I have always liked crested breeds and my interest first started as a child with a silkie X pekin hen. In 1999 i discovered the Polands and have been fasinated by them ever since. Since 2000 i have kept all the standard colours in bantams at some point and several of the large fowl varieties. I currently keep white crested black and cuckoos in large fowl and white crested black and blue in bantam. I also keep all the standard self coloured bantams. I keep other crested breeds which include Houdan bantams, Araucanas in large and bantam, sulmtaler bantams and Belgian barbu de Watermael. Polands however will always be my priority! I am keen to help promote Polands whether its for the show bench or just as a breed to keep in the back garden for pleasure.
