Here is a list of kind people who are willing to help out in whatever way they can, be it via a phone call or a pond visit. You can PM the volunteers or ask for help via a post, just a couple of things to bear in mind though......
Anyone asking for help would need to understand that we all have a life and could not expect any volunteer to drop everything to go and help out at a moments notice.
Anyone asking for help would need to provide the basic equipment, ie nets, bowls and treatment mats if nessesary. I would think most of us willing to help will have the rest of the gear needed. Out of pocket expenses would be expected to be covered, ie any treatments supplied and used by the volunteer and any fuel/travel costs incurred.
And finally any advice or treatments followed would be entirely the responsibility of the Koi's owners/persons asking for help and done at their own risk.

I am fairly in-experienced but will do scrapes in Worcestershire for the price of petrol and 4 cans of Carlsberg.
I'd really advise getting a microscope though. I'd recommend it too if I knew how to spell recommend!

Thats what its all about. Maybe there should be a section on here telling other forum members on here what your trade is and if you could be any help to them.
For example Brickies, Electricians, Double Glazing Fitters and Couriers, not expecting it done for free but I'll scratch your back if you scratch mine.....

I was wondering if there is anyone around the Banbury Oxfordshire area who would be willing to have a look and maybe do a scrape etc. as I don't feel proficient enough to undertake this procedure, and advise me on a couple of Koi I have, who I think may have Costia ? I have already lost two 7" Koi and also two of the larger one's.

Thanks Lee we are both aware how frustrating the hobby can be in the beginning and we all need help so if i can help i am happy .
sometimes its easier to help face to face so you can explain all the things you need to know.
Well done for offering as well mate .

Is anyone in the Nottingham area that could do me a visit please think I've got a bacterial problem but not 100%
Hi there I live in Surrey/ Godstone anyone near by if I need get in trouble as I am very new to this and going to be introducing my first fish in the next few weeks.
Also thinking of joining a local club maybe if there is one nearby.
Hi there is anyone near me in Godstone Rh9 8hg as I have now introduced 3 fish into my new pond and the water has been checked and is ok. The fish are flicking a little and would like to make sure before I do anything what the problem may be or even if there is a problem. I spoke to the shop and of course they say that they checked there fish and there was nothing on them!,
