A week in wellies on one of our working farms builds a child’s courage, confidence and compassion. Taking them away from modern day pressures, it opens up a world of opportunity. Your gift can give a child an experience of a lifetime that could change the way they see themselves and their future.

Situation
Children who spend time outside in nature experience better mental and physical health and improved wellbeing, yet children who live in underserved areas of the UK are 20% less likely to spend time outside in the natural world than their peers from more affluent areas. By donating to this campaign, you can enable more children and young people from London to spend a week in wellies, accessing the countryside on one of our working farms, building their courage, confidence and compassion, benefitting their mental health and wellbeing and changing the way they see themselves and their future.
Solution
Each year, through an immersive residential week on one of our three working farms, we give over 3000 children and young people from underserved areas around the UK the chance to play and explore the great outdoors, interact with nature and let their imaginations run wild. The week provides moments of discovery and meaningful connections with each other, while supporting children to build courage, curiosity, compassion and confidence, without reliance on digital devices.
