This two-year project offers twice-weekly farm workdays to volunteers who experience mental ill-health, to help care for the farm’s animals and carry out maintenance and conservation tasks on a 3.5 acre working farm in the outskirts of Swansea. Staff provide support, structure and training, and volunteers offer peer support and can join a peer mentor programme when they’ve gained sufficient experience. The idea comes from participant feedback and they continue to be involved in the development of the project through regular reviews, meetings, and chances for informal feedback. The project aims to allow a core group of volunteers to work on the farm in an in-depth way, developing long-term plans for better animal care and conservation management, whilst empowering people to better care for themselves and others’ wellbeing.
