Creating Safe Spaces
As winter settles in, Stonebridge City Farm is working harder than ever to continue creating safe spaces for everyone who depends on us. But with rising costs, freezing temperatures, and increasing pressure on our charity, this winter is becoming one of our most challenging yet.
We know that times are hard, and many people are feeling the strain. That’s why keeping the farm open, warm, and welcoming matters now more than ever. To do that, we need your help.
But the farm remains a warm and welcoming space for thousands of visitors every year. A place where children can meet animals for the first time, where volunteers and learn new skills, and where people of all ages find comfort, connection, and calm.
To keep our animals safe, our community supported, and our gates open through the cold winter, we urgently need your help.
Safe Space for Our Volunteers
Every day, volunteers with a wide range of abilities, backgrounds, and additional needs find purpose, structure, and community here at Stonebridge City Farm.
For many, the farm is more than a place to help—it’s a place where they feel supported, valued, and understood.
Your donation helps us continue offering:
- Meaningful, supported volunteer roles
- Specialist guidance and pastoral care
- A safe, stable environment where people can grow confidence and skills
- Warm indoor spaces where volunteers can gather, learn, and feel connected during the coldest months
When you support our winter appeal, you’re helping us protect a lifeline for people who need a safe space the most.
Safe Space for Our Animals
Our animals rely on us completely, especially during winter. Rising costs of feed, bedding, heating, and veterinary care make it a struggle to provide the high standards of welfare that we are committed to.
Your support ensures we can continue:
- Keeping barns warm and dry
- Providing quality feed and regular enrichment
- Maintaining clean, comfortable living spaces
- Delivering the best daily care, even in freezing weather
By donating, you help us keep every animal safe, healthy, and loved.
A Safe Space for You and Your Community
From families looking for an affordable day out, to school groups discovering nature, to students and community organisations seeking a supportive environment—Stonebridge City Farm is a free, inclusive safe space for thousands of people each year.
With your help, we can continue offering:
- A welcoming, accessible space for all
- Educational visits that inspire and engage
- Community connection in a warm and friendly setting
- A place of calm and comfort during tough times
Through winter, your support keeps our gates open to everyone.
