WCB Court & Livery Lunch February 2022

The Master looks forward to welcoming Minette Batters, President of the National Farmer's Union for England and Wales, as our guest speaker at the February Court lunch.

Much has changed since the last time Minette attended as NFU's Deputy President and our special guest at a Court lunch held at Ironmongers' Hall in November 2015.

We are delighted that Minette will be returning as President of the NFU and re-enforcing our ongoing connection with the farming community and its members.

Minette is a British farmer with a long term commitment to the NFU, which culminated in her appointment as President in 2018. She was the first woman to be elected into this role, leading an organisation of 47,000 members, and was re-elected in 2020.

She co-founded the campaigning initiatives for "Ladies in Beef" and the "Great British Beef Week".

Minette is also a trustee of Farm Africa.

The Master's and Clerk's of the Dyers, Pewterers, Innholders,, Apothecaries and York Gild of Butchers have also been invited to attend.

Friends, family and colleagues are all welcome.

We look forward to seeing you.
