Include Youth, a regional charity for young people, was recently welcomed to Dale Farm’s Pennybridge site in Ballymena. With the aim of improving their employability and personal development, the group met with key staff on-site, and enjoyed a tour of the facilities.

As Northern Ireland’s leading dairy producer, Dale Farm was able to support the charity’s Aiming Higher scheme through the visit – a project which provides opportunities for young people to receive mentoring support from employers and business leaders.

Dale Farm Commercial Director, Jason Hempton, said: “Dale Farm became aware of the valuable work being carried out for young people in Northern Ireland by Include Youth through our sponsorship of Ulster Rugby. We were delighted to be able to support their mentoring initiative through the recent visit to our Pennybridge site.”
