Christmas break time? We think so. Thank you to all our volunteers for their hard work this year, we couldn't do what we do without you. Wishing everyone a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! We hope to see faces old and new next year, we're back on-site Jan 10th :)
We're always searching for
volunteers, partners and sponsors, if you think this could be you or your organisation- please get in touch
this #GivingTuesday
It's that time of year again, #givingtuesday is
almost here!
As a small charity, we rely on donations to function. This could be the time generously donated by our volunteers, or money very kindly donated by both individuals and organisations.
In the past year, we have used your support to grow and distribute over 250kg of fresh produce to food banks, a number we're aiming to smash next year. We've also continued our holiday club for children in deprived areas, and helped volunteers into employment

@WoodlandTrust As an provider of outdoor activities at Pennine Lancashire Community Farm our research verifies that traditional outdoor activities are vital to helping children maintain positive well-being.
Like farmers up and down the land our volunteers are preparing to count sheep this upcoming spring as they await the Lambing season to commence. A key aspect to the Shepard's Year programme many have been participating in.
Like farmers up and down the land or volunteers are preparing to count sheep this upcoming spring as there await the Lambing session to commence. A key aspect to the Shepard's Year programme many have been participating starting last year.
Like many small charities providing social "prescriptions" (in our case outdoor Eco therapy activities), we find the issue is not getting links or referrals but securing financial support to operate these key services.
Not knocking important role of link workers, but the number being sought is minimal and there is a big difference between signposting to non NHS services and a clinician “prescribing” a bespoke physical activity programme for a patient. https://t.co/gVJTfv1rxN
