‘Things which matter most must never be at
the mercy of things which matter least.’
Goethe
“I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my
career. I have lost almost 300 games. On
26 occasions I have been entrusted to
take the game winning shot, and I missed.
I have failed over and over and over again
in my life. And that is why I succeed.”
– Michael Jordan

Mentoring Participant Philip Brown, Newtownhamilton

“I contacted Countryside Agri-Rural Partnership earlier this year to see what support was available. The mentoring programme seemed to offer just what I needed, a bit of support from an independent person, someone to bounce ideas off and to check I was going in the right direction.”
“My mentor was able to provide the tools I needed. He gave me good examples and templates to use for cash flow projections which actually made sense to me. It was really beneficial to have someone from a farming background who understood where I was coming from”
Through mentoring Philip:
• Got support with planning his business venture
• Accessed Skills Training essential to the development of his business
• Identified other sources of capital funding
• £250 towards succession planning advice
