Tessa Berridge

I grew up on a family farm in Northamptonshire, so I have always been aware of the challenges facing farmers and our rural communities. I studied Geography and Education at Durham University and during this time I realised I wanted to work in the rural sector, so I went on to do a Business Management Masters at The Royal Agricultural University (RAU). I work as the Senior Communications and Events Officer at The Prince’s Countryside Fund where our vision is of family farms and rural communities that fulfil their role in creating a sustainable future for the countryside and our whole nation.
