Clyde Higgs Scholarship: Amy Bere
Posted 16 February 2017
“I find it fascinating how many young children have never been near a farm animal, I believe this is something all children should experience and something we take for granted.”
Amy Bere, BSc (Hons) Agri-Business student, has received the Clyde Higgs Scholarship at Harper Adams University.
Amy, 22, from Doncaster, South Yorkshire said: “The Clyde Higgs Scholarship will help towards building the current lambing day we already hold on the home farm into a weekly event, to educate children and families, as to where their food is coming from.
“In the future, I hope to provide milking demonstrations allowing children to understand where their milk, cheese, cream, yoghurts etc., comes from and the tireless hard work which is put in the dairy sector.
