something money can't buy...
"When I told my late father that I wanted to run the family business he said ‘In that case you’ll need to join a trade association who will give you support and advice. You can’t measure the cost because by picking up the phone you have something that money can’t buy and that is expertise.’ I can honestly say In all the years I have been a member of the NCB it has been money well spent."

Always there for us...
NCB is always there for us, I really appreciate the fact that whenever I need to discuss issues, there is someone that understands at the end of the phone. I particularly valued their help with how to deal with issues regarding Covid and Natashas Law. Being a member Primary Authority, has been a massive help not only with documents but also giving me confidence when dealing with any inspections. I look forward to the Craft Butcher Publication and use it as a way to keep up to date. Keep up the great work

highly valued...
As a farm shop that, amongst other departments, runs and manages its own butchery, we find the specialist butchery advice and support that the Craft Butchers are able to offer invaluable. Their friendly, prompt and detailed support is always relevant and highly valued. When it comes to butchery would find it hard to find this type of service from any other organisation.

Value for money...
"I have used the NCB numerous times over the years and the advice I have been given has always been 100% spot on and saved me £££s I might otherwise have spent consulting with legal advisers. This together with the work carried out on behalf of butchers makes NCB membership great value for money. Anyone considering joining should not hesitate!"
