RADA Knowledge Transfer Facilitator Lesley Innes arranged a two day sheep shearing course which was delivered by British Wool Marketing Training Ltd(a growing area of Wool Board activity). The course, which was held last week on the Reasheath sheep unit saw the delegates work toward the internationally recognised qualification in Blue, Bronze, Silver or Gold Seals, which were awarded depending on their ability.

This course will now be running on an annual basis.
