The West of England Cavalier King Charles Club saw the light of day in the early sixties.  It was a seed planted by a small band of ladies in the West Country. A few classes of Cavaliers were included at the Bath and West Peke club show. Whilst at this show, two ladies, Mrs Burroughs and Mrs Murray managed to persuade enough people to become founder members and thus in 1962 "The West of England Cavalier Club" was born.

Mrs Burroughs went on to be the first Hon. Secretary and Mrs Murray, the Chairman. These were very strong and determined ladies and it was due to their hard work and foresight that the club has such strong foundations today

 In 2007 the club celebrated it's Ruby Anniversary Championship Show.  To commemorate this event we produced a Year Book, given free to all our members, with photos of all the Best in Show winners plus articles from our two judges Maurene Milton and Molly Coaker. Copies of this are still available from the treasurer.   A celebration cake and a glass of bubbly was enjoyed by all and special rosettes donated from the USA were awarded to the top winners. 

 The club has a hard working and dedicated committee who will strive to do their best for their members and for the good of the breed.  

In 2012 we celebrate our Golden anniversary. Events for this very special occasion are at the planning stage at the moment and as plans are finalised the details will be published here.
