Around 20 grounds staff from Staffordshire clubs and beyond gathered last month at Howardson Group’s new Unit 1 facility for a day of learning, networking and a behind-the-scenes tour of the Dennis and SISIS production lines. Organised in partnership with STAG (Staffordshire Association of Grounds People – Staffordshire Cricket), the event brought together industry experts and grassroots volunteers to share knowledge, explore the latest turf technology and gain insight into equipment care.

Keswick’s two flagship parks – Hope Park and Fitz Park – nestled in the heart of the Lake District in Cumbria, are setting the standard for sustainable grounds maintenance thanks to the exceptional performance of three Dennis ES-510 battery-powered mowers.

Dennis Mowers, part of the Howardson Group, showcased its latest turf care innovations and contributed to the educational programme at GroundsFest 2025, held at Stoneleigh Park. Highlights included the launch of the new ES-34SL lightweight stadium mower, designed for consistent presentation with enhanced manoeuvrability and operator comfort. Alongside a full range of equipment, the Dennis team led practical seminars on precision mowing and turf aeration, reinforcing the company’s commitment to education, reliability and customer support. GroundsFest once again provided an important platform to connect with turf professionals, share knowledge and gather valuable insights to help shape future product development.

Dennis and SISIS, part of the Howardson Group, successfully showcased their latest turf management solutions at TurfTech 2025 in Basel, Switzerland, on September 1–2. The event provided a valuable platform to connect with international grounds professionals, exchange knowledge and discuss practical solutions to today’s turf care challenges.

Two recent greenkeeping seminars held at Blaby Bowling Club in Leicestershire and Woodhall Town Spa in Lincolnshire proved to be a huge success, drawing bowls greenkeepers and volunteers from across the regions. Each event offered a full day of expert presentations, on-green demonstrations and the chance for attendees to share experiences and learn from one another.

The Howardson Group proudly hosted its Export Dealer Training Week 2025 from 15th to 18th September welcoming dealer partners from across the globe to Derbyshire for an immersive three-day programme of product training, factory insight and hands-on experience with the latest innovations from Dennis, SISIS and Syn-Pro by SISIS.
