We had an excellent turnout at our AGM yesterday providing a welcome opportunity to discuss the outlook for the business with our engaged farmer owners. Dale Farm executive team members Nick Whelan , John Morgan , Chris McAlinden and Mark Boyle presented at the meeting. Topics included the strong results for the last financial year ending March 2024, next steps of our Future Strong sustainability programme, as well as an update on the £70m investment at our cheddar processing facility at Dunman. Independent Director, Ellvena Graham OBE FIoD, shared an interesting insight into board governance and the valuable work undertaken by board sub-committees. Nick Whelan said “Our latest financial results show our business strategy is working. Through strategic investment we are able to deliver growth while paying a competitive milk price. We look forward to the year ahead with a sense of optimism and a determination to build on this success, together with our farmers.” #dalefarm #sustainabledairy #dairycooperative

Thanks to the lovely people at Dale Farm Ltd for providing the first Polly Pineapple of the Autumn. Another super cohort of Managers engaging in Linkubator 's Difficult Conversations Module. This group's key takeaways highlighted: - the importance of asking better questions to improve our understanding, - avoid labelling anyone as a "difficult" person (we can all be difficult depending on our stress levels but the label leads us into a confirmation bias trap) - prevention is better than cure (we can always work harder to encourage good performance, positive behaviours and create conditions that foster easy conversations) ...and my favourite: - there's no such thing as "unreasonable" (we just haven't yet uncovered their reasoning!).

Recently our Finance and IT teams signed up to volunteering days with FareShare NI. FareShare NI is an amazing organisation that tackles food poverty by redistributing surplus food to charities across the province from school breakfast clubs and senior citizen lunch clubs, to homeless shelters and community cafes. FareShare rely on the support of organisations like Dale Farm, so it was a great opportunity for the teams to see first-hand what is involved and join the drivers on their deliveries. Our Chief FinanciaI Officer, John Morgan shared “I am a passionate believer in businesses giving back to communities - it’s a win-win scenario. The team enjoyed spending quality time to connect with each other and I think it gives a different perspective on our day-job challenges” #dalefarm #communitysupport #fareshare
