🐑🐴 AFTERNOON FARM VOLUNTEERS WANTED! 🐓🐾
Love animals? Want to spend your afternoons in the fresh air, surrounded by furry and feathery friends? Patchwork Farm at Chailey Heritage Foundation is looking for enthusiastic volunteers to help care for our amazing animals! We have pigs, goats, sheep, donkeys, guinea pigs, tortoises, ducks, geese and hens. Not to mention Nic Nac the Shetland pony.
💚 What’s in it for you?

✅ Fresh air, fun, and plenty of outdoor exercise
✅ Meet like-minded animal lovers
✅ A real feel-good way to spend your time
No experience needed—just a big heart and a love for animals! Tasks include feeding, grooming, mucking out, and making sure our animals are happy and healthy.
As we have very vulnerable children and young people on site, all volunteers are required to have an enhanced DBS check.
We are looking for volunteers for either a Saturday or Thursday afternoon 2:00-4:00 pm.
