Published for the ASAO by Graham Walton Publishing Ltd

I attended my first ASAO meeting back in 2006, I would never have thought then almost exactly 20 years later (wow! I really am getting old!) that I would be asked to write the welcome for our members for the 2026 season as Chair Elect.

Back in 2006, when I first joined the industry, (which was more by accident than intention) ASAO, its council and members, welcomed me with open arms, guided and supported me, and showed me just how truly unique and lucky I was to be working in the Show business! Having had a temporary move into other types of events in the midteens. I knew pretty quickly that I needed to get back into the agricultural events industry, and in 2016 I was lucky enough to be given that opportunity at the South of England Agricultural Society, which like many of us in the industry, had been my family show ever since I can remember, so I felt like it was meant to be and I have not really ever looked back.

Of course ASAO welcomed me back with open arms, and showed the support and encouragement they had always done, it really is the most special association/family. So I am truly honoured to be sitting here today, writing this little message, knowing that come February I will be chair. What makes things even more special I will be heading up an allfemale group, alongside Mared as my amazing Vice Chair, Jenna and Pam. I think I speak for all of us, in saying that we are all so passionate about this industry and the ASAO. Alongside the rest of council, who all bring a wealth of knowledge and experience, we will be constantly looking at ways in which we can improve things for our members, and making sure everyone feels as welcomed and supported as I have done.

I am super excited for the future of the ASAO, as we steer into the 2nd quarter of the 21st century. Working with Jenna and Pam, in Jenna’s first year as CEO, I am sure that Jenna will have a very positive impact on the association, as we move forward. Whilst still maintaining the close family feel and support that it offers its members.

I know attending functions with lots of unfamiliar faces can be daunting, but I cannot emphasis enough the benefits of joining in on as many of the ASAO events as possible, be it the annual conference, Learning Day, regional meetings, or even the monthly catch up’s, I guarantee you won’t regret it and will find at least one positive thing to take home and implement at your show/organisation. You will also doubtlessly go home with some amazing friends and a support network, that will be there for you through-out the year, more than happy to be on the end of a phone line, to support you through any tough times, but also there to help you celebrate the amazing times, the show world provides. No, 2 years are the same, with what the world throws at you in this industry, it is a constant rollercoaster, but you are never alone, I assure you ASAO, the ASAO executive, council and members are here on the ride with you.

All that is left to do, is wish you a successful 2026 and look forward to visiting as many shows as I can throughout the year and hopefully seeing many of you on a catch up soon.

Awards

COWPAT Award

(Countess of Wessex Perpetual Annual Trophy)

The award was originally created by our Patron as a light-hearted way to recognise the Show Secretary or Officer who had made the most memorable ‘mistake’ of the year! Over time, these have ranged from the incorrect identification of animals during a Royal visit to accidentally deleting the finished table plan for the ASAO black tie dinner — all taken in good spirit, of course.

Since the pandemic, and with the many challenges our industry has faced, the award has evolved. It is now open for nominations for a members’ representative who has gone above and beyond to support, enable and encourage their Organisation or Show through recent times — bringing people together and strengthening the offering of their organisation and our wider show community.
