Volunteering at Stonebridge

 From the very beginning, Stonebridge was shaped by volunteers seeking connection, purpose, and a safe space to grow. Many faced challenges such as isolation, trauma, or disability, yet their contributions built the thriving community we celebrate today. Over time, we developed intentional roles and routines designed to support people’s well-being, a reflection of our belief that everyone deserves a place to belong 

Volunteering at Stonebridge is about being part of a working farm. Volunteers help keep the site running day to day, alongside staff, animals, and other volunteers. 

Many people volunteer here for the structure, routine, and sense of belonging that comes from turning up and being relied on. 

 We welcome around 160 volunteers on site each week. Volunteers are the heartbeat of Stonebridge – each and every volunteer has an important role to play – we couldn't run the farm without them! 

What Volunteering Involves

  • A regular commitment, usually one day a week
  • A minimum shift length (4 hours)
  • Working as part of a team in a public, shared space
  • Following farm routines, boundaries, and safety guidance

“I volunteer one morning a week alongside my job. It’s grounding. You do something physical, you see the impact straight away, and you’re working alongside people from all sorts of backgrounds. It’s made me think differently about community and what shared spaces are actually for.”
