Land-based accrediting organisation, Lantra has appointed three new members to its board of trustees.
The new trustees include Trefor Owens, a chartered forester and senior leader in sustainable land management, with experience sitting on land-based industry committees and advisory boards for organisations, including Forestry and Land Scotland, Defra and Welsh Government.
Also joining the board is Euryn Jones, regional agricultural director for HSBC with prior experience in the education sector through the role of agricultural lecturer, and a background in the position of farms director.
Helen Taylor, a committee advisor and chartered surveyor with governance experience across the UK’s public and private sectors, is the third new member.
David Llewelyn, who took over as Lantra chair of trustees in 2022 says: “Lantra works tirelessly to address the needs of the land-based and environment sector, anyone working in the sector will appreciate these needs are ever changing and often complex.
“It is critical that we have the breadth of skills and experience on the board to guide and support the staff team in delivering the charity’s purpose. I’m confident that the new trustees joining us today bring expertise and knowledge to complement our existing members and contribute to Lantra’s continued success.”
