Alex gives young people information on rural careers

Alex, who graduated from Harper Adams with a BSc (Hons) Agriculture with Animal Science in 2000, now resides in Hillsborough, where she works as a lunchtime supervisor at Downshire Primary School and also helps out on her partner’s farm, Glen Dairy Farm.

Alex’s first event as a Harper Adams rep was the Belfast UCAS Fair, where she chatted to teenagers considering careers in the land-based industries. Harper Adams courses covers every part of the food chain, from farm to fork, and including agricultural engineering, agriculture, land management, food marketing, animal welfare, and countryside studies.

If you would like Alex to come and speak at your school or attend a careers event, please contact Nick Deane on 01952 815012 or email [email protected]

Alex was also at the Harper Adams University College stand at Balmoral Show last week to spread the word
