🗞️Historic Tug of War Triumph

Our national Tug of War Final (sponsored by @davidson_and_robertson) is always one of the highlights of the Highland Show Weekend, drawing huge crowds to the sides of the cattle rings to cheer on our members in action on the rope. 

A massive congratulations to this year's champions; @beith_yfc in the Gents competition, lifting the trophy for the first time in their history, and @avondaleyf  who ended a 19 year wait for the Ladies title. 🏆

🏠Fundraising Thank Yous For this week's Thursday
🏠Fundraising Thank Yous

For this week's Thursday Thank You we had to take the chance to once again highlight the fantastic support of the @aberdeenshirerhs.

We are in awe of the hard work and dedication that the presidential team have put in throughout this year to highlight the amazing produce, places and people of the Aberdeenshire region. 

As part of this, they have brought people together through a series of brilliant fundraising events – including a golf day at Meldrum House, a dinner and dance at Thainstone, and a special lunch at The Marcliffe. Each one of these events was a huge success and highlighted the astounding generosity of the region and their agricultural community. 

All this culminated in a fantastic stand at the Royal Highland Show with the people and produce of the North East at it's heart. And it was there we gathered on the Friday of the show to hear the announcement that the grand sum of £290,000 would be distributed to the  initiative's supported charities – @rhass1784 , @rsabi_ and our own Big Build campaign. What a total!

We are incredibly grateful for this generous donation helped push our fundraising efforts past the £1 million milestone. We are getting so close to our final goal. With plans to break ground this September, we are asking all who can to join us in this final push to fund our new home.

Find out how you can get involved today at the link in our bio.

It's #WellbeingWednesday and, due to recent appearances of a strange bright object in the sky above Scotland, our Development and Wellbeing committee have taken the time to compile some handy tips on how to stay safe in the sun.☀️🧢🧴🚰🕶️

Many people in the agricultural sector spend long hours working outdoors, greatly increasing their exposure to harmful UV rays. A few small preventative measures can help limit that exposure and reduce the chances of sun damage, skin cancers and heat stroke.

Each year at the Royal Highland Show, the entries to our National Arts & Crafts competition take pride of place in the Young Farmers Stand. 2026 was another exceptional year for the competition (sponsored by @nfu_mutual), with members creating some brilliant displays for show week based on the themes of ‘Après Ski’ in the senior competition and ‘World Cup’ for the Junior teams.⛷️⚽
