15 Minutes With...Will Bax

In the latest episode of '15 Minutes With...', CLA Vice President Eliza Ecclestone sits down with Will Bax - Secretary and Keeper of the Records at the Duchy of Cornwall.

Will shares the story behind one of England's oldest institutions, from its founding in 1337 to its modern-day mission spanning 130,000 acres, 200+ tenant farms and ambitious community-building projects like Poundbury.

The pair discuss the Duchy's commitment to regenerative agriculture and net zero, how long-term stewardship shapes decision-making in an era of unprecedented volatility, and what needs to change in planning policy to build beautiful, sustainable communities.
