Community news: Farm secretary's mix business with pleasure

The Derbyshire branch of the Institute of Agricultural Secretaries and Administrators organised a successful weekend for their Annual Conference and General Meeting. 

Over 150 delegates immersed themselves in discussions, practical workshops and farm visits.  

These insightful sessions focused on rural business diversification and development, collaborative advice and explored the latest agricultural administration software.  

The group also raised £435 for The Farming Community Network through a collection during their gala dinner.  

Lucy Atkin, conference organiser, said: "This year's conference was a resounding success. It was inspiring to witness members and non-members alike coming together to dive deep into the core of farming; sharing experiences and connecting with industry experts. The enthusiasm and passion displayed by attendees reaffirmed our collective commitment to the advancement of agricultural administration."
