Welcome To Downham Care Farm
Set in a beautiful part of Suffolk the farm is a traditional small working farm with a difference; it’s a Care Farm.
Our aim is to provide a safe, supportive and inclusive environment for a range of vulnerable people giving them the opportunity to take part in the daily activities on the farm. This includes care of the animals, growing vegetables and fruit, farm maintenance, working as part of a team and learning new skills. We have a wide range of livestock including pigs, sheep, cows, goats, horses and chickens. Not to mention an assortment of small animals and of course the dogs and cats.
If you fancy a relaxing break, we also have a small holiday cottage on the farm that is fully accessible and is available for bookings all year round. We can also offer respite care during your stay should you require it.
Be A Farm Helper!
If you have an interest in working with animals, horticulture and the outdoors being a farm helper could be for you.
Here at the farm we believe that everyone has a different skill set and can contribute to the running of the farm whether it’s collecting the eggs, feeding the animals or carrying out maintenance tasks, everyone is treated as a valued member of the team.
