Growing people through alternative education and community engagement.
Whether you’re local or on holiday, come and visit our unique Care Farm in South Wales and explore our picturesque 160 acre Farm. A great day out for a family in search of fun or a walker looking to escape to the countryside.
93% of young people on placement in 2019 at Amelia Trust Farm move on to education, training or employment.
”If it was not for the Farm, several of my students would have dropped out of education and not received any qualifications.

”We have used Amelia Trust Farm for many years and they have always been superb at providing the appropriate care for the most disaffected pupils. The service they provide is a unique way for pupils to re-engage in practical and formal education.

Meet our animals
Here at the farm we are home to over 20 wonderful species, little and large, from our chatty guinea pigs to our curious donkeys.
We are a registered charity care farm as well as being a donkey sanctuary. We are devoted to caring for our animals and every effort goes into ensuring the highest standard of welfare and care is given. We pride ourselves on educating our service users and the public about the local wildlife and nature, animal welfare and well being and the rewards of caring for animals.
A great day out for a family in search of fun or a walker looking to escape to the countryside.
Open every day except Christmas Day. We are dog friendly too!
