NFU Poultry Industry Programme 2022/23, Poultry health specialist, North East

I’m originally from Shropshire, but currently live and work in East Yorkshire. I studied agri-food marketing and business at Harper Adams University, but I had no idea what path to go down.

I fell into poultry by accident when I got offered a scholarship by Moy Park and did my placement year with them and absolutely loved it.

I want more awareness of what’s going on in the wider industry and a bit more involvement with other young people in poultry on the PIP.
