Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

We are raising money for "Farms For City Children", a charity which offers urban children from all over the country a unique opportunity to live and work together for a week at a time on a real farm in the heart of the countryside. It is an intense, ‘learning through doing’ experience of a different life – for children who may not know where their food comes from and have limited opportunities to explore the outside world.

A group of ten from the South West offices of Brewin Dolphin will be taking part in two 5km swim relays on the 28th March. Training is well and truly underway, with the hope of everyone swimming 1km each. 

Any donations would be greatly appreciated.

About the charity

Founded in 1976 by children's writer Michael Morpurgo and wife Clare. A weeks stay on one of our working farms aims to develop potential, build self-esteem and enrich the lives of 3,200 children from inner cities, and towns annually. Many are disadvantaged and some have special educational needs.
