Emily Jones (25) Ceredigion
The ambassador interview panel were bowled over by Emily’s enthusiasm for the programme and the future of the sheep sector during the selection interviews. Emily currently splits her time between her job as an account handler for the Farmers Union of Wales and work on family’s sheep and beef hill farm in West Wales. In addition, she fills her busy schedule with volunteering work for the mental wellbeing charity, the DPJ Foundation, sits on several livestock breed society committees and is a qualified Registered Animal Medicines Advisor (RAMA). It was clear, however, that Emily was determined to make time for the NSA Next Generation Ambassador programme and is looking forward to implementing ideas and experience gained from it back with her pedigree flocks that includes North Country Cheviot, Charmoise Hill and Dorset Down ewes, as well as her family’s commercial enterprise of Easy Care and Welsh Mountain ewes.
