News Round-up

Members join the most influential network of landowners and rural businesses in England and Wales.

Each regional area – including our London Branch – organises regular events, varying from seminars on the future direction of EU policy on agriculture and on tax-planning to workshops on hedge-laying and other opportunities to socialise and network.

We are also involved in local agricultural shows and sporting fixtures. Best known is The CLA Game Fair, with its international reputation for showcasing country sports and the best of British food and rural living.
