                             South East Koi Club
                             Our meetings are generally held on the fourth Sunday of

                             We sometimes move our meeting date to avoid our Open
                             Show, Christmas and sometimes if it coincides with
                             another Club activity. Details of our meeting dates can be
                             found on our website.
                             Our programme of events cover all aspects of the care
                             and welfare of Koi and include guest speakers with a
                             specialist knowledge of one or more aspects of the
                             hobby: including pond building and filtration; precautions
                             and treatment against parasites and other ailments;
                             purchasing new Koi and what to look for; also breeding
                             and raising small Koi, to name but a few topics;
                             refreshments are on sale too.
                             Our Club has a wealth of knowledge and expertise in all
                             aspects of the hobby and our new Club members can
                             always get help and advice.

                             We have an extensive library of books, DVDs and videos
                             which you can borrow and gain even more knowledge.
                             Every month we produce ‘Spotlight’, our newsletter,
                             carrying news and a diary of coming events, this is also
                             available to members on-line.
                             We hold Auctions which enables our members to buy or
                             sell Koi and Koi related items – there are often some real
                             bargains to be had.

                             Every year we hold The All England Koi Show, this
                             spectacular event celebrated its 33rd annual show in
