Today we welcome Penny Montgomorie, Sheena Munro and Alec Allison onto the R2Kast to talk all things Big Build! 🏗️ This heartfelt episode dives deep into the past, present, and future of the SAYFC Centre—Young Farmers’ spiritual home—and the enormous challenge ahead to raise £1 million for its redevelopment. 🏡✨

From early involvement in speech-making and travel exchanges to national leadership roles, Sheena and Alec reflect on how SAYFC shaped their personal and professional lives. Their stories offer a sense of tradition, legacy, and a reminder of how impactful rural youth networks can be. 🌍👫

Penny shares her journey from club member to CEO, recounting how the centre has been her workplace—and home—for over two decades. She walks us through the vision for the new building, the exciting developments, and how the sector can support SAYFC’s biggest project in years. 🏢❤️

A call to action rounds off this special episode—whether it’s a big contribution or a small gesture, everyone can play a part in building a future for SAYFC. This episode is a love letter to the power of community and what happens when people rally around a common cause. 🤝🔥

Enjoy! 😊

Thank you to Howden Rural for the continued support.
