100 years ago this year a group of young people farming in Caithness got together and without realising it kickstarted the largest rural youth group in Scotland! Fast forward to now and SAYFC offers opportunities that dwarf that of some careers! International travel, professional development, a safe social space and so much more activities, events and experiences!For some years the running of SAYFC was facilitated by a national council which was essentially a voted on group of members from around the country that required progression through club, district and regional level! That has recently changed with a restructure based around 6 focussed committees that sees a senior leadership team of the CEO, Penny alongside national chair and vice, Jane and Ally as well as the regional chairs, vices and 6 committee chairs and vices also!Those 6 committees areAgri and Rural AffairsCommunications and MarketingCompetitions and EventsDevelopment and Wellbeing Finance International TravelIn this call we had myself, Aimée Margrove, Laura McCulloch, Grant Barr, Jane Strawhorn, Ally Brunton and Skye Watson to talk about them and their committees!What this means is I have now set the challenge of having every club on the podcast so please get in touch! Lower Nithsdale get first dibs! 😉Enjoy!
