The Society was established in 1981 by a group of poultry enthusiasts looking to unite poultry keepers across Surrey. The aim of the society is to promote the health, welfare and breed standards of poultry.

The Society is steadily growing year on year as poultry keeping becomes the most popular urban and rural pastime.
