Gaye O'Connor (Caispern)
It is with great sadness that we report the passing of Gaye O’Connor, Caispern Irish Setters & Irish Red & White Setters, after a short illness.
Gaye was a successful exhibitor, breeder and judge. She had been showing since the early seventies and had much success in the show ring with both her Reds & Red & Whites. Gaye was a committee member of ISBC & IRWC, she was also the Secretary of Sutton Coldfield & DCS for over 20 years.
She will be greatly missed by all her friends in the canine world.
We offer our deepest sympathy to Gaye's husband Eamonn, sister Wendy and family at this sad time.

Mountain & Moorland Ponies, and a former secretary of Burton Horse Show.

ISAE Announcement 2020 Championship Show
The Officers and Committee of the Irish Setter Association, England regret to advise that in light of the ongoing COVID19 situation we have taken the difficult decision to cancel our championship show and open show (already postponed from June) which had been scheduled to take place on Saturday 3rd October 2020 at the Kennel Club building at Stoneleigh. This decision has been made in light of current Government and Kennel Club guidance and whilst very difficult to make, the health and safety of our exhibitors, judges, spectators and committee members must take priority. We wish you all well over the coming months and look forward to seeing you all at our events in 2021.
