Rachael Walshaw

With her roots firmly established in Yorkshire, Rachael was raised on the family dairy farm before relocating to East Yorkshire in 1993, where the family transitioned from dairy to a beef and arable enterprise. This agricultural foundation provided her with a deep understanding of day to day farming operations.

Rachael has over 13 years of experience in agricultural marketing, beginning her career within the agricultural machinery sector, where she developed a comprehensive knowledge of the industry's commercial landscape. Following on from this, Rachael set up her own business, Gingerlass Marketing, helping rural businesses connect with their customers on social media.

Rachael's combination of farming background and extensive marketing experience creates an ideal skill set for her role at Cultura Connect, where she supports Marketing Director Kate in raising the company profile and executing strategic marketing initiatives. Her understanding of both traditional agricultural values and contemporary marketing approaches enables her to effectively communicate with diverse audiences across the sector.

An outdoor enthusiast at heart, Rachael enjoys pottering in the garden and hiking up mountains with her husband, their son, and two dogs.
