Welcome to all Groomers

WELCOME TO all competitors and delegates to this year’s British Grooming Championships.

These championships are very important to the Groomer’s calender and without your support would not be the great success that it is today. The dedication and professionalism of our members reflect great credit on our industry. It served to underline that what was once a cottage industry has now emerged as a fully fledged profession of which we can be proud.

We have seminars which we hope you will find interesting and of help in your business.

After the resounding success of the grooming demonstrations at Petindex I wish to thank all of you who helped in any way. Your efforts to inform and entertain the visitors were greatly appreciated.

A big thank you to our judges, demonstrators, stewards, helpers and the Pet Care Trust Team and a special thank you to our sponsors without whose generosity this event would not be the success it is.

I wish all competitors a very successful and rewarding day.

Pam Gee - Director of Grooming
