Would you like to take part in the 2024 CHarolais Youth Program (CHYPS)? The ‘S’ stands for study, stock, social, scholarship, skills, syllabus, science, and success
This year it will take place in Wales by kind permission of the renowned Charolais breeder Mr D. Esmor Evans BScBVM&S MRCVS, also fondly known as the ‘Welsh Wizard’ and his partner Iorwen Jones of the record-breaking Maerdy herd. The fact that Esmor runs a busy veterinary practice in Mold, North Wales, and runs a 120-cow pedigree Charolais herd on a 1000ft hill farm 26 miles from his home, makes it even more remarkable that he has generously found the time to host our 2024 CHYPS programme and for that, the British Charolais Cattle Society is enormously grateful.
