crimsham farm
London
Crimsham Farm is a community farming project, spearheaded and run by Veterans of
the ArmedForces and young adults with learning difficulties. We run a variety of
weekly clubs that engage with the local community, offering a completely
inclusive experience for all. The site itself has been structured on a needs led
basis, built and improved at every step through engagement with our users and
the wider community, additions made at their request, making us the most unique
farming project in the county. Crimsham Farm also acts as an alternative
education provision, providing a space away from school for students who
struggle to fit with the models of mainstream education and as a therapeutic
centre for students with Special Educational Needs. By 2021 we will be host to a
Veterans RV where members of the Armed Forces can come for mental health
assistance, support groups, drop in centres, breakfast clubs and general
information and signposting to help with every day life. With a passion for the
outdoors, education and needs, Crimsham Farm is pioneering the way forward in
positive therapeutic interactions in a safe and disabled friendly environment,
providing a space that cannot be found anywhere else in Sussex in which the
local community no matter the cause, can come and join in the fun, whether
that’s through reduction of social isolation, inclusion in activities or just
somewhere to come for a cuppa and a chat, it can be found here on the farm any
time of the day, any time of the year! We have a huge range of activities to
engage in, all of which can be found here on the website, and the site is
expanding and improving all the time, so if you want to get involved, but cant
find your niche, drop us a message or pop by for a chat. If you are a school or
charitable institution helping those struggling with mental health or disability
based needs, why not come and see what we can offer your clients and students.
We truly are a one stop shop for all! As a not for profit, we rely heavily on
donations in order to keep up our amazing work, what with the struggles of Covid
over the past year, things are even more difficult for everyone than they were
before, so, if you know what we do, like what we do and want to help, why not
donate now? Any amount will help. Stay local, help local, reap the rewards.
