Trusts and foundations

We are grateful to have the support of many incredible trusts and foundations.

We deliver practical social and environmental change that has a real, lasting impact on family farms and rural communities. From wide-ranging farming programmes covering topics such as succession planning, benchmarking, biodiversity and soil health, to funding transformative rural organisations, our impact is clearly visible through thousands of people across the countryside.

Alongside this, we’ve helped create new connections between rural communities across the UK and brought together farmers to support and learn from each other.

We help drive real local change that impacts the everyday lives of people across England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Powering up those who live and work in the countryside.

If you are a trustee of, or have links to, a charitable trust or foundation which might be interested in supporting us, please get in touch with Ellie Burnage.

The Farming Life Centre, Peak District National Park

“The RCF have contributed enormously to the development of the Farming Life Centre; the funding has meant we can develop projects, based on need, giving crucial and relevant support to farmers. The RCF supports us in a way that other organisations don’t, understanding the needs of rural and farming communities. This is a great partnership working together to help make a difference.”
