UK Ponycon. Dates, venue, charity!!!

UKPonyCon

This year UK Ponycon will be visiting Sheffield!

On 23rd and 24th October The Mega Centre in Sheffield will be hosting UK Ponycon.

As always the Friday will be members day, with activities to help us all get to know one another, and have fun together.

Saturday will be convention day, come along, meet other collectors, add to your collection from the many stalls, sell or trade away your own surplus ponies, and enter the various competitions, events and quizzes going on throughout the day.

This year we would like to welcome The RDA as our chosen charity.

The Riding for the Disabled Association is a federation of Member Groups, which are dedicated to improving the lives of people with disabilities, through the provision of opportunities for riding and/or carriage driving. Groups enable people to improve their health and wellbeing, delivering a real and lasting therapy that not only benefits mobility and co-ordination, but encourages confidence and self worth whilst having fun. I am sure you will join the committee in supporting this worthwhile charity.

The Committee is currently looking into local hotels to see if we can secure a discount, details to follow.
