NSA launches the 5th edition of the Next Generation Ambassador programme
Held as part of the NSA Next Generation project, the group is made up of 12 individuals from England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, selected to take part in five two/three day technical and personal development sessions throughout the year. These made up of practical and tutorial based sessions, covering everything from health inputs, cost analyses, to bespoke visits and farm walks on a range of different sheep farming systems.
“I would urge anyone wanting to learn more about the industry alongside like-minded young people to apply for the NSA Next Generation Ambassador programme. It’s a brilliant opportunity and each session gives you so much to take home and think about in relation to your own flock while giving you the confidence to try new ideas,” Richard Taylor, an existing NSA Next Generation Ambassador said.
The 2018 group will be the fifth of its kind after the initiative was launched in 2014. Ambassadors are also encouraged to continue their involvement with NSA after their year on the programme through their regional committees or at local and national NSA events.
