We give children a week on working farms to grow courage, compassion and curiosity

Story

Farms for City Childen offers a chance for children to spend a week a world away from their normal lives. It is the first time they have experienced a sky full of stars, a natural horizon, fields of grazing animals, or wide-open spaces. On the farms, the children flourish. Self esteem and confidence can be seen to grow as children rise to challenges around them.

Each £140 raised can subsidise a child's stay on one of our farms for a week.
