Right now, too many children are missing out on opportunities to learn, grow and believe in themselves. They are growing up in a digital world, disconnected from nature with limited access to green space, fresh air and the wealth of benefits they offer. In our 50th year, with your help, we’re determined to change that for the better.

At a time when young people’s happiness and wellbeing are under increasing pressure in a fast paced, digital world, the need for meaningful, real-world experiences has never been greater. A week on our farms offers children time away from screens and the chance to reconnect with themselves, with others, and with nature. Through hands on learning in food, farming and the outdoors, children build confidence, develop resilience and discover a sense of achievement beyond the classroom.
