The Children’s Adventure Farm Trust is based at the beautiful Booth Bank Farm, a 17th Century farmhouse in the Cheshire countryside’s heart. We provide a variety of free programmes for terminally ill, disabled and disadvantaged children from all over the North West.
Each child who visits us is treated as an individual with their strengths, likes and dislikes. Disability is never seen as a barrier to participation and we welcome children from all social and ethnic groups.
CAFT helps children of all abilities aged 17 and under. Children who through no fault of their own miss out on the normalities of childhood. Children with complex and severe physical or learning disabilities, sensory impairments and terminal illnesses. Children from disadvantaged backgrounds, children who have witnessed or faced abuse. Children who act as young carers and sadly, children who have already faced bereavement. For these children, a break at The Children’s Adventure Farm Trust provides a fantastic and much-needed opportunity to escape the traumas of their everyday life and for a few days, they can simply be children again.
Whether the children are here for just a day or a few days, there is an amazing array of things to see and do. Our 10-acre site is the perfect place for children to create, explore and play. From swings and roundabouts to alpacas and donkeys. Messy play in the art room and bouncing down the inflatable slide. Pirates on the galleon and rock stars in the music room. What we provide goes so much further than just a holiday or a fun day; it is the memories that will last a lifetime.
The needs of the children who visit the Farm are complex and as such, our site and activity programme is designed to cater for all. Our Activity Play Specialists are trained to provide fun, safe and engaging activities that suit the interests and needs of every child who visits us. Each child is treated as an individual with their strengths, likes and dislikes and disability is never seen as a barrier to participation. CAFT is about fun for all.
