FBH and IHS

[Pete Q]

Now is the time to support the FBH and as many reptile clubs possible.
No one has more experience in fighting animal rights than Chris Newman FBH and Richard Brook and the IHS team. We must support the FBH in anyway possible right now , we must join up with local reptile clubs, weather it be IHS, EHS or PRAS, we must strengthen their numbers for the fight ahead. The anti's are building up for a fight again, they nearly won last time, they left us badly damaged last time. We must not let this happen again.

I am a member of the IHS and have to say times like these prove its a worth thing to be part of.

To anyone interested theres an IHS Hertford Meeting every first tuesday of the month at the White Hart Pub (hertford) from 20:00.

Its nice to meet people who have the same interests and all are welcome.

PM me if you want more info.

but people are too shortsighted to look at the big picture, and moan at the prospect of paying a sub.
everyone should belong to at least one of the societies/clubs

So living in surrey, what club do i join and how? or can i join a few different ones? is there a national one i can join? It's never been obvious to me how i go about joining and i think that is part of the problem.

Here is the link for the IHS so you can have a look,

Welcome to The International Herpetological Society

you need to be a member of some of the different societies to get into some of the shows around the country to legally buy reptiles,
Im not 100% sure, but I think! with the IHS membership you can get in all of them, Im sure someone will say whether Im right or not.

Can you join the FBH?
Im an IHS member already

[spughawk]

Is there a club or group in North Lincolnshire, if so where do they meet
thanks rob

[Pete Q]

I think it would be great to do a sticky for a while, reptile club links.
Also, remember that you don't have to be near to a reptile club, most of them send out news letters to let you no whats happening.

You can't join the FBH directly it is a society for Herpetological Societies, by joining an affiliated society you are helping the FBH as each society pays the FBH a sum of money for each UK member they have. Which in turn is used to help them fight legislations, pay solicitors consultation fees etc.

A new FBH website should be in and running again shortly
