Scottish Rural Leadership Programme

Rural Leaders in Conversation - Alix Ritchie

Scottish Enterprise

Alix Ritchie is a Perthshire farmer and passionate advocate for the rural community, who was recently appointed as the very first Programme Director for Farmstrong Scotland - a new peer-to-peer wellbeing programme. 

She has developed an understanding of agriculture, education and skills development through working with SAYFC, RHET and most recently QMS as Health & Education Manager. She is also a board member of the Women in Agriculture network.

In our podcast this month, she shares her story since completing the Scottish Rural Leadership Programme, and why wellbeing is such an important topic for agriculture, and rural areas.
