NFYFC is mourning the loss of its patron Her Majesty The Queen and sends its deepest sympathies to the The Royal Family. Since 1957, The Queen has been a committed patron of Young Farmers’ Clubs and the opportunities the organisation provides to rural young people. #TheQueen
The Royal Family The Queen met with YFC members over her many years of service, including presenting awards at The Royal Show. 2/4
The Royal Family The Queen showed a keen interest in agriculture, and several of the Royal Estates and Residences hold working farms. She was a true countrywoman, who understood the challenges young farmers face to feed the nation and always championed rural communities. 4/4

When tragedy affects a YFC, members often channel their energy into doing something positive. That’s exactly what Westbury on Seven YFC did when they beat a £10k target to raise a whopping £33,000 for The Brain Tumour Charity! 👉nfyfc.org.uk/NFYFCnews/nati… #NationalYoungFarmersWeek
