Created by necessity during times of hardship in the years following the foot and mouth epidemic of 2001, we provide help and support to farmers where it is often most needed giving us strong connections to all farming communities.

We work across the farming sector interacting with industry organisations, the conservation sector and government agencies, whose role is to support the farming community. We have good interaction with the public as we seek to promote farming and associated benefits to the public. Our membership continues to grow year upon year.
