Presentation to Shareholders 11 October 2021

This presentation, given at a meeting using zoom on 11 October 2021, summarises responses to the shareholders questionnaire: RESPONSES

9 February 2021 email to Trebartha Shareholders:

Dear shareholder,

Trebartha Strategy Review Questionnaire

We are excited to hear your views on the future of Trebartha. In a few minutes you will receive an electronic survey email which covers the key areas we want to explore when developing the next leg of the long-term strategy. 

The survey has a number of quantitative questions. There are also plenty of open-ended ones, where we hope you will share your broader thoughts. Feel free to be as creative and expansive as you like. 

We have attached two documents to this email. Please do try to read the TEL background paper, which gives an important overview of the estate and the last strategy review, before you complete the survey. There is also a document on the future of farming in the UK for those of you who are interested. Finally, there is a map of the estate we can send to those of you who would like it, but it is a big file and we wanted to spare your inboxes. Let us know if you would like us to send you a copy.

We will use the answers to inform the next stage of the project and we would love to have your answers by March 9. 

Please try to use the electronic version, which will make collating the results much easier. If you cannot, let us know and we will provide a paper copy.

If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to us at any time. 

The Strategy Team

Thorold, Lily, Simon, Tom
