The volunteers on Susan's Farm were delighted to have  been  awarded a King's Award for Voluntary Service  on the King's Birthday November 14th 2023.

At Susan's Farm we really value the work our volunteers do for us, whether that's feeding the animals,  maintaining our farm, helping out at events or working alongside those we support. 

We are always looking for more volunteers, so we can continue to develop what we offer and help even more people enjoy working on the farm and with nature.

If you have some time to offer, whether that's just for a few hours now and again, or a few hours every week, we'd love to hear from you. Volunteering is a rewarding experience for any age, and we offer you lots of support and training to ensure your volunteering is fulfilling and enjoyable.

We can discuss volunteering opportunities with you. Email helen@susansfarm.co.uk or call 01228 548336.

Please note that due to the type of work we do at Susan's Farm, most volunteers will require a clear enhanced DBS check with barred list check as detailed in our Safer Recruitment Policy.

Here at Susan's Farm we want you to get as much, or as little, as you want from your volunteering experience.

We can support you to gain the National Volunteer Certificate, which requires 60 hours of volunteering work, alongside the completion of 6 free e-Learning modules covering:

• Your role and responsibility
• Communication
• Respect for Everyone (Equality Diversity and Inclusion)
• Safeguarding (Adults and Children)
• Mental Health, Dementia and Learning Disability
• Health and Safety
