Garvald Home Farm Ltd
(UK, SCO15243) Browse events
YTD Raised: £156.00Garvald Home Farm is a small community of people, some with a learning disability, living and working together on our organic farm. The Farm is run following biodynamic principles and our produce of meat, milk, vegetables, eggs and wool are certified by the Biodynamic Agriculture Association (BDAA) to organic and Demeter standard. For 30 years work on the farm has provided a variety of meaningful activities and learning opportunities which we hope to expand, offering training and work experience to the wider community. To make our farmyard a safer and more people friendly space to work with large stock and manoeuvre machinery, we plan to divert a road and replace the dilapidated Dutch barn with one set further back. Another shed will be doubled in size providing better shelter for more stock. In the historic farm steading the existing dairy and meat processing facilities will be upgraded, allowing Garvald Home Farm to produce and sell an expanded range of produce to local markets and provide more learning and employment opportunities. We also need to improve the style and capacity of the accommodation. One wing of the farmhouse is due for refurbishment to provide more comfortable and up to date facilities for staff and residents. We propose to address the historic shortage of space for residents by constructing two Scandinavian-style log cabins in the Garden grounds. Garvald Home Farm is looking at an exciting future and we hope very much that you want to be part of it.
Clay Cross Foodbank
(UK, 247928) Browse events
YTD Raised: £156.00Clay Cross Foodbank is built on Christian values of compassion, integrity and commitment. Our church based foodbank has engaged the whole community in providing food to local people going hungry. We provide three days (10 balanced meals) of emergency food. Food is given as a result of referrals from registered Care Professionals such as Social Services, Health Visitors, Probation Officers, Church Pastoral Workers, schools and others working in the front line of poverty. Families collect food from one of our centres, where it is packed to match their needs as closely as possible. While they wait we offer drinks, and biscuits or cakes. This allows us time to offer a listening ear and possibly point them towards areas of help in order to break the poverty cycle. We partner with local groups including Citizen’s Advice, Adult Education and other churches to provide help for people to change their circumstances and lift them from needing food support. The foodbank will also support socially disadvantaged or vulnerable people by offering placements to work in the community, whatever their physical or mental condition. We can provide opportunities for those out of work to volunteer, building their confidence and skills and gaining a recent reference.
