    NPS JUDGES CONFERENCE 19th March 2011

About 65 people attended the NPS Judges Conference on the morning of 19th March 2011 at the Hilton East Midlands Airport Hotel.

This was an open forum type �€˜round table' conference where each table identified a set of questions that they put to a panel.

The panel were Joanna MacInnes, Pat Renwick, Jerome Harforth, Elizabeth Mansfield-Parnell, Jocelyn Price, Peter Durrant, Jackie Webb and Sarah Challinor.

Martin Jones was MC and worked with designated �€˜table monitors' to ensure a balanced discussion. We thank Martin and the panel very much for their contributions and their words of wisdom.

Every NPS Judge must attend at least one NPS Conference/Study day every five years, it is important that our judges realise this, as new ideas and rules are brought forward to be discussed and it is essential that all judges keep themselves up to date.   This offers an excellent opportunity to get together and keep abreast of Judging issues and Breed Standards.  NPS judges are greatly respected and we cannot let our standards lapse, so please make sure you attend these days, otherwise we will have to implement the removal of judges who do not fulfil these requirements, as carried out by other societies.
