Transforming young lives

We’re a charity equipping young people to thrive through our unique blend of Farming, Family, Therapy & Legacy.

Welcome to
Jamie’s Farm

We believe in the innate potential and good in every young person, no matter their background or life experiences.

Jamie’s Farm uniquely blends Farming, Family, Therapy and Legacy into a transformative 5-day residential programme with follow-up support. Our impact is testament to this, revealing that young people leave the farm better equipped to thrive academically, socially and emotionally during their school years and beyond.
