Anster Nicht: Cambo, How To Run An Estate in the 21st Century

About Anster Nicht: Cambo, How To Run An Estate in the 21st Century

The Erskine family has lived at Cambo since the seventeenth century, but how does a new generation run an estate like Cambo in the modern world? We will hear from James Erskine, who took over the reins in 2020, after a successful career as a theatre producer in Scotland and England, followed by the adventure of family life in Myanmar.

Cambo Estate uses five principles of community, opportunity, sustainability, aesthetics and fun, to guide its activity. James will share how he is balancing his own position, as a self-proclaimed ‘bleeding heart liberal’, with his responsibilities for Cambo’s future, looking at difficult topics such as inequality, class and love.
