The Surrey Guild of Judges and Lecturers encourages and trains judges for flower shows in Surrey and surrounding areas. It also keeps a list of judges, highlighting their specialities, that local societies can use to select judges to suit their shows.
Lecturers or speakers
These are recruited after recommendations from local societies. A list is prepared, giving details of their subjects again so that clubs and societies can choose from a large number of speakers, most of whom offer a wide range of topics to provide even more choice.
Multiple Specialities
Several of our members specialise in non-horticultural matters such as cookery, handicrafts, floral art, children’s classes etc. all classes which can be found in many flower show schedules, this allows show secretaries to find all the judges they require from our list.
