There is a charge to come out with the hunt as this is how we generate the income needed to pay staff salaries and care of the horses and hounds. Traditionally all subscriptions are an invitation to join the hunt and are suggested as a minimum amount, although the rates below are have been budgeted to generate the income needed to run our operation.
Many people who have retired from the hunting field like to send an annual donation to the secretary to show their on-going appreciation, or they join the Patrons Club. This helps us give a good rate to young people.
Subscribers send their payments to the Secretary:
Miss Rosie Garton, Orchard Cottage, Sundey Hill Farm, Brinkworth, Wilts. SN15 5AS Cheques should be made payable to “The VWH Hunt”. To pay electronically or to discuss direct debits by installment, contact Rosie by e-mail on
