We are delighted to offer junior volunteer placements within our riding school and farm. Placements are available on a three-month basis, with either Saturday or Sunday as your regular day. Additional days may also be available during school holidays.

Why volunteer at Deen City Farm?

We have lots of different types of animals so you can find out the ones you really like working with. We are a registered charity so you will be helping a local organisation that works within your community. Its a great way to meet like minded people and make new friends. You get to learn all about what it takes to work with animals. Qualified staff guiding you through the day. You can complete your Duke of Edinburgh volunteer placement here as we are a registered charity.

We will let you know if you have been successful.

For livestock department we offer 3 month placements, for the riding school your placement will be ongoing.

There is no limit to the amount of three month placements you can partake in and if you miss out on one cycle do fee free to apply for the next one.  Placements run from Sept-Nov, Dec-Feb, March-May and Jun-Aug volunteering goes ahead in wind rain and shine so do please bring the right clothes for the weather.

• Suitable for children aged 12-17.
