A WOMAN who set up a mail order lingerie firm to help subsidise her husband's sheep farm is to be honoured at an awards ceremony celebrating rural enterprise.

Sally Robinson, who runs Ample Bosom, at Sutton Bank, on the North York Moors, has been praised by Country Living magazine's Enterprising Rural Women Awards.

Mrs Robinson, who was highly commended in the farm diversification category, was hailed by judges as one of the most "inspiring and innovative businesswomen in the country".

Mrs Robinson will be presented with her certificate today.
