Idency supports Jamie’s Farm this Christmas
Blog by Andy | Posted on Monday December 9 2024
This Christmas, Idency is supporting Jamie’s Farm, a brilliant charity that tackles real issues for disadvantaged children and young people.
While it’s a fun time for many families, the festive season can be a challenging time, especially for those facing difficulties. That’s why we’ve chosen to support Jamie’s Farm, an organisation that offers a lifeline to young people in need.
What is Jamie’s Farm?
Jamie’s Farm welcomes small groups of disadvantaged children and young people to their rural livestock farms each week. Here, they participate in real jobs with tangible outcomes, all within a supportive and nurturing environment. It’s more than just chores – it’s about fostering cooperation, boosting self-esteem, and building positive relationships.
A catalyst for change
The experience at Jamie’s Farm goes beyond the farm itself. The program includes a rigorous follow-up initiative that acts as a catalyst for change. It empowers young people to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally throughout their school years and beyond.
