Search is on to find the ‘Face of Love Lamb’

26th August 2021

Love Lamb Week was established in 2015 by Cumbrian sheep farmer Rachel Lumley in response to poor lamb prices and low domestic consumption. Rachel sadly passed away in 2020, the new face of the campaign will take on Rachel’s legacy and honour her name and ambition to improve the nation’s taste for delicious lamb once again.
