Did you watch Countryfile Dorset? If yes you might have seen Future Root’s Countrymen’s Club featured in the programme – it is one of the projects we funded in 2014 through the Dorset County Council Fund. The grant helped the charity scale up their operations by renovating the Whitfield rural activity centre which was previously closed for over a year and needed a refurbishment.
The Countrymen’s Club based in that site offers the opportunity for older people with life changing conditions such as Parkinson and dementia benefit from farming therapy.
