The JDSE&P Committee takes on the responsibility for the training of Judges, Demonstrators, Speakers and Teachers and giving advice where appropriate. Details of each discipline and our Judges, Demonstrators, Speakers and Teachers can be found by using the buttons below.
We have a Photography Representative who takes photographs at Kent Area events and organises a regular Photographic Competition in Kent. Click on Photography button below to find details of our annual photography competition.
From time to time we meet with Club Programme Secretaries to keep them up to date with information from Headquarters and current issues concerning all disciplines.
The Committee organises Area Workshops for members, Refresher and Training days for the disciplines. We also update the Kent Floral Art list giving details of all current Judges, Demonstrators, Speakers and Teachers every two years.
Kent Floral Art supports members who may wish to train in a certain discipline and will help to fund this training. The committee also arranges fundraising activities in the area to help support the training.
Upcoming Kent Floral Art Workshops can be found under the What's On tab.

Usually each year, the JDSE&P committee organise a day that ALL members of Kent Floral Art can attend (It is often referred to as JDSE&P Day, which stands for Judges, Demonstrators, Speakers, Education and Photography). From 2024 we have referred to it as our Spring Gathering as we wanted to emphasise that all members of Kent Floral Art are welcome to attend. We usually have a speaker in the morning and a demonstration in the afternoon. At Area days the Area representatives are usually present to share what is going on, answer any questions from club members and take the names of anyone that is interested in signing up for training.
