I’m finally home after an incredible trip to London for the National Women in Agriculture Awards and I’m still feeling inspired by the experience.

As we bring the 2026 International Women’s Day celebrations to a close, we want to shine a light on the incredible women who make up our voluntary committee board.

Julie McLaren, Vice Chair of Women in Agriculture Scotland, is bringing fresh energy and fierce commitment to the organisation’s mission: empowering women and strengthening the sector through collaboration.
