Our association

Our association is a network of experienced, qualified show and competition judges for craft, floral art, cookery, preserves and staging and interpretation.

What we do

We provide judges for shows, competitions, and accredited award schemes across England and Wales. Our judges are professionally trained experts in their disciplines, keeping up to date with latest trends and best practice.

And we help to train new judges, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to judge at local, regional and national events. This combines in-depth study of a discipline, with practical judging skills – delivered by experienced judge trainers.

Our Values

Our association is built on professional standards, and we champion our values in everything we do:

• Expertise
• Professionalism
• Fairness
• Encouragement
• Community

We’re a talented group, with a flair for flavour, artistry, colour and design, and an all-important eye for detail. And above all, a passion for our disciplines and a strong commitment to passing on our knowledge to show entrants and new judges.
