As another Northern Ireland summer draws to a close, I want to take a moment to reflect on the wonderful season of agricultural shows we have enjoyed across the country. From the smallest local gathering to the larger events, each has played an important part in showcasing the very best of farming, food and rural life.

A Message from Group Executive Director, Theresa Morrissey

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.
