The IWTF Committee would like to thank FACE and the NARGC for the open invitation kindly extended to our Federation to celebrate St Hubert’s Day on Saturday 3rd November. The hospitality shown to the IWTF was welcomed and very much appreciated. It was a great opportunity for other fieldsports groups to meet some of the IWTF committee members and for the IWTF to present itself to a wider audience.
Formal introductions were made with many individuals and faces put to the names. Various organisations were in attendance such as the NARGC, FACE, IFHA, IMFH, FISSTA, Irish Sports and Country Life Magazine (Albert J Titterington ) . The IWTF is actively seeking to build bridges, alliances and grass-root support with fellow hunting groups and associations and the St Hubert’s Day celebration facilitated this bridge building process. The IWTF hopes to continually build on such relations as time goes on.As per usual with FACE and NARGC events the occasion was very well organised with a great venue, superb catering with a fantastic turnout. The support from the Laois Hunt is to be commended. On behalf of the IWTF Committee,
Sincere Thanks to Des Crofton and the FACE Executive.
IWTF Committee Members with Dr Yves LECOCQ,
the Senior Policy Advisor to FACE Europe.
