Will Roobottom, a sheep farmer from Staffordshire, discovered his passion for farming at a young age, tracing his roots in agriculture back over ten generations. Despite briefly considering a career in accounting, his love for farming reignited when he returned to the family farm during his teenage years.

After rejecting an accounting apprenticeship, Will pursued his passion for agriculture at Bishop Burton Agricultural College and later at Harper Adams University, where he studied Agriculture with Farm Business Management.

At Cowley Hill Farm, Will Roobottom is dedicated to breeding high-quality Lleyn sheep while integrating technology for farming efficiency. Beyond the farm, he's known as the face of Cowley Hill Farm on YouTube, where he educates the public and farming community about sheep farming. Will's aspirations include expanding his flock, achieving breed recognition, and growing his YouTube channel, showing dedication and innovation in agriculture.
