NFU Scotland and NFU Mutual’s prestigiou­s Ambassador Award has been presented to Anne and Bobby Lennox.

The couple, from Shantron Farm, near Luss on Loch Lomond-side, were announced as winners at NFU Scotland’s annual dinner in Glasgow on February 6.

Establishe­d in 2009, the award was set up to recognise individual­s who have played an influentia­l role in communicat­ing the work, challenges and the value of Scottish food and farming to a wider audience.

The couple are worthy winners and wellknown faces to TV audiences. They were one of the farming couples to star in the first series of the BBC’s award-winning This Farming Life programme, which aired in spring 2016.

The award is also in recognitio­n of the stalwart support Anne and Bobby have given to hill farming, the young farmers’ movement, education and tourism over many years.
