As our club name suggests we represent Lleyn Sheep breeders in Scotland & the North of England, a vast area where sheep probably out number people!
We meet up 2 or 3 times a year, usually at Canonbie for a discussions on relevant sheep & society issues, everything is lighthearted.
We also plan a Club Open Day at a breeders farm, this gives farmers that may be interested in buying Lleyn sheep a chance to view them in there natural surrounding as well as letting fellow Lleyn breeders look round a flock and compare sheep.
Our other major event is the Carlisle & Stirling sales. At the sales we hold a pre sale Show, which have proved to be very popular and well supported.
The Carlisle Sale now offers the largest number of Lleyn sheep for sale in the UK and in many breeders eyes the Premier Sale for the breed.
