Dear everyone who has supported Cowden farm.


It is with great sadness that I write this letter.  


Ever increasing costs and the on-going reduction of new service users and the loss of local government contract this year has given Cowden farm no other option but to regretfully close.


Cowden Farm has struggled for several years and without the generosity of funders and a great team of volunteers we would have closed sooner.


Cowden Farms last day was Friday 4th March 2016.


Cowden Farm would like to take this opportunity to thank staff and the team of volunteers and all the support we have received from the local community, individuals and funding streams for all their effort, hard work and support they have shown Cowden over the years.


Cowden Farm wishes all the very best to every person that has attended the farm and hope they will continue to have happiness whatever they choose for the future.


Yours Sincerely


Anna and Colin Hall

On and behalf of Cowden Care Farm CIC
