This is fantastic to see in the news today.
I have met Sabrina, and read her incredible life story to become a fire service chief in her book 'The Heat of the Moment'. She is an incredible and kind person and does amazing advocacy work for the homeless.

@JamesBBSRC Yes, absolutely. Designing Future Wheat and several other projects are working directly with industry, and working on the current elite varieties of wheat, which is what the majority of farmers will and are growing, which is used for most of our bread-wheat products in the UK.
