The 2026 Essex Course is being held from Wednesday, 8th April (one day courses of Calling and Conducting, and using a simulator), followed by three day courses from Thursday, 9th April to Saturday, 11th April inclusive.
As in previous years, we have been oversubscribed with applicants, with all 72 available places now allocated.
However, we currently are short of helpers. If you can spare either any of the days or all of them, you can complete the online form here:

Or contact the Association Master (master@eacr.org.uk) or Andrew Kelso (arckelso@mac.com).
The courses range from Bell Handling Basics through Advanced Hunting to Treble Bob Minor. If you can help, but not confident at your current level, please offer to help at a course where you feel confident.
We need as many helpers as possible; the more we have, the easier it is for all participating.
Thank you.
