professional associations

Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust are a leading UK charity conducting conservation science to enhance the British countryside for public benefit. For over 80 years they have been researching and developing game and wildlife management techniques. We use our research to provide training and advice on how best to improve the biodiversity of the countryside.

The National Gamekeepers’ Organisation Represent the gamekeepers of England and Wales. They defend and promote gamekeeping, help gamekeepers and ensure high standards throughout the profession.

NOBS help get you involved with beating and picking up regardless of whether they have participated before or are complete novices. We act as an active link between gamekeepers or shoot captains with beaters and pickers up.

The British Association of Shooting & Conservation

The Countryside Alliance is known for its work on wildlife and management, but its agenda is far broader than that incorporating food & farming, local businesses and services and the injustices of poor mobile phone signal and broadband in the countryside. We are anything but a single issue organisation and represent the interests of country people from all backgrounds and geographical locations.

The CPSA is the National Governing body for Clay Target Shooting in England.

The remit of the CPSA is to manage the sport of Clay Target Shooting for its approximately 25,000 members and the 400 clubs and grounds affiliated or associated with us. There are also approximately 200 Trade Members associated with the CPSA who believe that being part of the association can be mutually advantageous.
