Cath Crowther to return from maternity leave this autumn

CLA East Regional Director Cath Crowther will return from maternity leave in October. Her role has been overseen on an interim basis for the last year by Mark Riches, who was previously a CLA director in the Midlands and a director of programmes.

Speaking of his time with the team in the East, Mark said: “It has been a great pleasure to have supported the CLA in the eastern region and to have met so many members and heard about their rural businesses.

“I wish Cath and her family the very best and I know she is excited to be returning to the role and to be back engaging with the CLA membership.”
