Corporate Team Building
Team building days have never been so important.
With many staff working from home or hybrid working, there are fewer opportunities to bring your team closer together.
Team building at Amelia Trust Farm will:
- Improve productivity among colleagues
- Create better communication channels
- Allow colleagues to get to know each other in a more informal setting
- Provide a well-being opportunity for staff
Of course, team building days are also the ideal chance to:
- Give back to your local community
- Support causes that are important to your business
- Promote your Corporate Social Responsibility strategy
- Create links with your local charity

Fundraise for Us
If you want to help us continue to support the local community and continue our life-changing work, we’d love you to fundraise for us.
Donations and fundraising are essential to keep our small charity going. Your support can make a big difference.
You can help us give teenagers the chance of a brighter future, give our animals the life they deserve, protect the environment for future generations, and offer a welcoming space for those in the community who benefit from the welcoming nature of the Farm.
Whether you’d like to host a bake sale, initiate a non-uniform day at your school or workplace, or take on a sporting challenge, we’d love to hear from you.

Sponsor an Animal
Give a thoughtful gift that will really make a difference. Our sponsor an animal opportunities are ideal for birthdays, Christmas, Mother’s Day, and just to show someone you care.
Every effort goes into ensuring the highest standard of welfare and care is given to our animals, and our animals play an important role in the work we do with disadvantaged young people.
Throughout their time with us, our young people learn the skills needed to look after the animals and gain confidence from taking responsibility for the animals. For many of our young people, the opportunity to interact with animals is completely new.
By sponsoring one of our animals for a year, you will help us continue this work.
It costs us £154 per day to feed and care for the animals at our Farm. If you sponsor an animal, your money will be used to pay for:
- Veterinary care to keep our animals healthy
- Food, bedding and enrichment
- Maintenance of our animal housing
How much should I donate?
Donkeys, Ponies & Alpacas please donate £50
Pigs, Goats, & Sheep please donate £30
Little Furry Animals please donate £20
Boost your donation by 25p of Gift Aid for every £1 you donate. Please tell us if you are a UK taxpayer and we can claim 25p of Gift Aid for every £1 you donate to help our charitable work.

- Your Sponsorship Certificate
