Joining the EWHA committee has been a very rewarding experience for me. I have my own horticulture business and the social aspect of regularly connecting with others in the industry has been a highlight. It has also been very beneficial professionally as it has provided me with many networking and learning opportunities. When I joined a couple of years ago, I found the committee very supportive and welcoming. In my time as a volunteer I have acquired new skills, made new friends and have had a lot of fun along the way.

The EWHA events are engaging, with a range of topics, locations and always knowledgeable guides. I’ve enjoyed them greatly and have met fantastic people through these connections. Highly recommend! Thank you to the committee for another lovely evening.
