Hafod y Llyn Isaf – Family Farm
We run a small family farm in Snowdonia, North Wales and have had groups from QPC’s homes come and visit over the past few years. Each visit focuses on giving the children the chance to experience ‘being a farmer for the day’ with activities like sheep and lambing checks, land management, and chopping firewood. Beginning each Spring, a series of visits has focussed on the new lambs and calves, giving the children an opportunity to see how they grow and develop with each visit as time goes by.
They have helped with a range of things, from routine health checks to hand shearing sheep, and it has been our pleasure to see how they have naturally taken to caring for the animals. The group will often spot a misplaced lamb or if something isn’t quite right just as any good farmer would. During these visits, the level of care and attention that the staff provide has been brilliant, with support and encouragement given when needed. It has been a pleasure to work with QPC and the children in their care.
