Planning on bringing a calf to the All Breeds All Britain Calf Show?🇬🇧🐄

Make sure you've got the right health checks in place first. Every animal entered needs to either come from a herd accredited free of BVD by a CHeCS approved scheme or have a negative individual BVD test, and every animal needs a pre-movement TB test. Copies of both need to reach us, your breed, or club coordinator before you arrive.

Not sure where your herd stands? Get in touch with CIS today👇

Bath & West Dairy Show 2026

Congratulations to IRG Collins & family who won the triple crown with Churchroyd Fay 22, Churchroyd Brontë Wildeyes 82 & Churchroyd Strawberry 16.

So lovely to see new exhibitors Ruby and Danny Brice supporting the breed. Well done on a top job to these youngsters.

The show also welcomed Fred Collins’ Hale herd and the Osborne family with their Tobarn Shorthorns back after years on hiatus. Fantastic to see both herds in the ring

“We are all broken, that’s how the light gets in” - Ernest Hemingway

95% of farmers say poor mental health is the biggest hidden danger in farming today

If you need to talk, we're here to listen. You are not alone.

Asking for help is the first step.

Farmers face so many challenges; market fluctuations, unpredictable weather, difficult management decisions and long hours that make farming extremely isolating. All of these factors can have adverse effects on mental health leading to stress, anxiety, loneliness, depression, illness, family concerns and worries about the future...

We all experience these things at some stage in our lives.

Time to break the stigma. Time to Talk. Stay active. Eat well. Develop coping strategies. Connect.
