Just to explain for new members, in case you didn't know. The NHC is the National Hamster Council in the Uk - there are limited members of it who breed to keep the species in tact, for good health/genes and for temperament. They don't breed for profit but occasionally have some of a litter to rehome for adoption after keeping the odd one for their future breeding.
They are the only real official, verified breeders in the Uk. The word "breeder" has some very negative connotations among some people in the hamster community these days, but that is because of backyard breeders and hamster mills and other inappropriate practices. So it's important to distinguish that NHC breeders are very committed to the species and follow standards.
Their official list of breeder members is linked elsewhere on the forum.
In fact I'll start a new thread on the topic
