Your life, your call – farming, family and future workshops

Give yourself the tools to communicate better, handle difficult conversations and plan with clarity at our one-day workshops, delivered by Amy Hughes of EmpowerAg.

Delivered through our Roots to Resilience programme, the workshops have been specifically created for farmers to help you get clarity on what really matters for yourself and your business, giving you the tools to communicate well, get everyone on the same page and move forward with a clear direction.

• Getting everyone on the same page – create and communicate a clear direction that your family and team can understand, support and be involved with
