Thousands of people are helped by Swansea Community Farm every year. But to carryout our work, we need your help too. There are plenty of ways in which you can do this - whether it is becoming a member, giving a donation (and Gift Aid), getting involved as a volunteer or becoming a Financial Supporter.

Membership is extremely important to us in many ways. Providing unique services and facilities to more than 10,000 people a year, we know that we are an extremely important resource for the entire community, however, we need people to sign up as members, for as little as £5 a year to prove this to funders. Furthermore, membership fees provide the Farm with unrestricted funds which often pay for overhead costs, animal food and building maintenance which is often difficult to get other people to support. It’s fair to say that with 3.5 acres of land, 4 purpose-designed buildings, over 50 animals and more than 500 child, youth and adult volunteers, we are a busy charity with increasing costs. Your donation can help us to help so many others, so please give generously.

Membership is open to individuals, families, groups and organisations, who wish to support the Farm and its aims. Click here to become a Member of the only community-led city farm in Wales.

Donations

Donations are an easy way for people to help us without any other involvement or commitment. We don’t charge an entrance fee which ensures that everyone can benefit from our charity; however, if you can afford it, we can make your donation go a very long way. For example: a £10 donation would pay for the food, bedding and volunteer care to keep our six beautiful Llanwenog sheep (soon to be more once they have their Lambs at the end of April). For those with a bit more, a £100 donation would provide one member of staff to help run a Family Farm Day, where up to 25 children and adults can work alongside each another in a range of tasks, sharing skills and having fun.

If you are able to make a donation of any size, please send a cheque to Swansea Community Farm, at 2 Pontarddulais Road, Fforestfach, Swansea, SA5 4BA. Or if it is more convient, why not set up a standing order ?
Please remember that if you pay tax, you can sign up for gift aid which means the government will give the Farm 26p for every pound you donate. Click here to fill out your gift aid form and help give more for less.

Adopt An Animal

Later in the year we will be launching an ADOPT AN ANIMAL scheme which will offer you the chance to help look after your favourite Farm animal. With the option of a certificate, photo of your animal and dedicated Farm tour, the adopt an animal package will make a great present for you or an animal lover you know.

Sponsorship and Partnerships

Financial supporters have helped us become who we are today. We are keen to develop new partnership with local businesses and organisations as direct sponsors for the Farm, through financial support for an individual project or activity, as corporate members for as little as £15 a year or with tailored Team Challenge Day for your staff members. Working with us can help you meet your social responsibility targets, can provide a face for your businesses within the community and any donation you make can be used to claim tax relief.

Without the help of our financial supporters we wouldn’t be in a position to offer such a diverse range of services and facilities that have helped tens of thousands of people. We will never be able to fully express our sincere gratitude but let us start by saying THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
