Welcome to
The Kennels’ Calendar of Events Welcome to the Autumn/Winter edition and the final installment of exciting events for 2013. With the gloriously long summer having drawn to a close, it has been lovely to see so many of you enjoying the vast array of events so far this year from the weird and wonderful to old favourites. Once again we bring you a whole host of events to take you through to the end of the year and into 2014, with something for foodies, fun-lovers and fashionistas alike. Why not immerse yourself in a touch of culture with one of our many talks from guests such as sustainable fashion guru, Sandy Black, or cook up an alternative Christmas feast with The Kennels’ Cookery School. We also continue to support local charity Canine Partners through our Dog Membership, so why not take the opportunity to visit their headquarters and learn about how their trained dogs can help to improve the lives of people living with disabilities. And in between events, don’t forget that The Kennels is a wonderfully cosy place to retreat to on a cold winter’s day, so be sure to enjoy a delicious, warming meal with friends and family or simply relax with a drink next to the roaring fire. As always, we hope that you enjoy these events as much as we have enjoyed planning them and look forward to seeing you at your club house soon!
