A Message from Group Executive Director, Theresa Morrissey

A unique STEM education initiative celebrating Northern Ireland’s rich farming heritage has marked a major milestone. The Wool Innovators programme, delivered by SENTINUS in collaboration with Ulster Wool and generously funded by The Worshipful Company of Woolmen, has successfully engaged more than 700 primary school pupils across 25 schools over the past two years.

As we move through the busy summer season, it’s great to reflect on what has already been a successful year for the Royal Ulster Agricultural Society.  

Earlier this year the Society was delighted to welcome Sir Ian Huddleston of the Clandeboye Estate as our newest RUAS corporate member. For many of our members, this distinguished brand is instantly recognisable and synonymous with heritage, awards and high standards but we thought this the perfect time to tell you a little more about their company and where they are today. 

This week we caught up with the Society’s new Procurement Officer, Sharon Harradine, to find out how she’s settling into the team.
