Society Profile
The Council of the Brown Swiss Cattle Society comprises ordinary members who have been nominated and elected to the Council at the Society’s AGM.
The Council has been able to hold monthly meetings to discuss and decide upon issues that affect Society members and the Brown Swiss breed in the UK. Most of these meetings are virtual with at least two physical meetings being held each year.
Current Council Members and their contact details are listed below. Should anyone have queries regarding any aspect of the breed please do feel free to contact any of the Council Members, with your own local council member being the most likely to be able to help.
