All About Country Woman's Guide

 

As Emma and Holly worked together, it struck them that they were working in a collaborative way that happens on farms, equestrian yards, and rural businesses all over the country, yet on social media we tend to see social silos with like attracting like - and that in means that differing viewpoints might be lost in the mix.
“Through our conversations, we realised, that removing any commercial aspects, we both were passionate about the same thing: the sharing of stories to inspire, empower and help guide others.” -  Holly Thomson

First - "The Journey"

Like the storytellers of old, who would travel the length and breadth of the country, sharing stories and achievements about the incredible characters to be found within the communities, their first key project will be ‘The Journey’.

They’re organising a fundraising, UK wide road trip throughout September 2023, raising funds for two wonderful charities; the Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institute (RABI), to support the countryside community and Pompe Support Network, a cause close to Holly’s heart, as her father lives with the rare genetic disease Pompe (Glycogen Storage Disease Type II).

Through sharing true and inspiring stories along the road about people Holly will stop off and interview throughout her trip and Emma will interview at shows, they hope to show the successes, the realities and the sheer tenacity of life in the country and how community supports and guides each other.

Community, tenacity, rallying together and wisdom sharing between generations are to name but a few key qualities of the country community that they aim to showcase through these exclusive interviews, stories and profiles in the weeks, months and years to come.
