Launched in 2022, RNAA Opportunities Fund supports young people considering a career in farming or seeking to develop their skills and experience.

Each year, the generosity of donors means that we can offer a range of grants, bursaries, mentoring, scholarships and other support to those seeking to broaden their horizons and to explore the range of options open to them. Beneficiaries become part of the RNAA family, representing and giving a voice to the next generation.

Throughout the year we provide charitable grant funding, bursaries and scholarships for successful applicants to undertake exciting learning and development opportunities. The purpose of the Opportunities Fund is to raise aspirations and enable potential to be developed.

David was a keen advocate of the need for farmers to innovate and make progress throughout their careers. The Royal Norfolk Agricultural Association (RNAA) and the Royal Norfolk Show were an important part of David’s life and commitment to farming. For those who would like to help create a legacy in David’s name we encourage you to donate to the RNAA’s Opportunities Fund which was established to support the development of the next generation of farming leaders in Norfolk.
