According to a recent study commissioned by Volunteering England, volunteering is actually good for your health

For any of you who has been to one of our events we hope you were impressed with the efforts taken to 'put on a good show', but as you can imagine this is no accident. The Friends of Grimsbury Farm relies on its volunteers to make this magic happen and to keep up these events, and more importantly, keep them free - something we are resolute about. Although we have a great group of volunteers with various skills and contacts that help us operate throughout the year, we are very keen to build on this group to push our events forward with fresh ideas and inspiration, new skills and simply more pairs of hands! We would love to hear from anybody of any age and ability that would like to get involved, have a bit of fun and help put their community farm on the map. We meet every other month for our official group meetings and during the lighter evenings (May-Septemeber) for our working parties helping around the farm and preparing for events - please join us at either or both, you will be most welcome. For further information please feel free to contact us by emailing us at chairman@fogf.co.uk.
