Crowdfunding Thanks

 These sessions are made possible thanks to the generous support of Crowdfund Kent, with funding from Kent County Council, NHS Kent & Medway, Folkestone Lions, the Cornwallis East Kent Freemasons Charity, and many kind individuals. Their contributions enable us to provide these valuable experiences at no cost to participants.

Who can apply for free sessions?

The aim of our project is to enhance the lives of adults with learning disabilities, special educational needs, social, emotional and mental health needs, including depression, anxiety and PTSD. Through meaningful, hands-on activities in a safe, natural setting, participants can learn new skills, build confidence, and develop social connections.

Spending time outdoors and connecting with nature has proven benefits for both mental and physical wellbeing, including reduced anxiety and depression, lower stress levels and blood pressure, and improved mood. Nature helps us feel calmer, happier, and more positive overall.

If you meet the criteria above, please complete our registration of interest form here. We ask that you provide as much information as possible about your needs, so we can ensure sessions are supportive and that participants are grouped with like-minded individuals.

During periods of high demand, it may take a few months before we are able to offer you a place. When a place is offered, sessions may be limited to one month. This approach helps ensure that as many people as possible have the opportunity to benefit from time on the farm.

We also offer 1:1 sessions and qualifications.
