About NCFI(UK)

Care farming is still in its early stages of development in the UK, although  numbers of farms are growing.  Farmers that have been offering on-farm health, education and welfare services for people in need have often felt isolated in the absence of a national network.

The NCFI(UK) seeks to offer providers the benefits of collaborative action:-

• awareness raising and mutual support
• marketing through a dedicated national website
• insurance, health and safety and other advice
• networking events and opportunities to share best practice
• advocacy and government policy development
• training opportunities
• building the evidence base by co-ordinating research
• providing a portal for commissioners of care to contact care farming practitioners
