Growing for the Future
“The Happiest Place on Earth”
Who are we?
At Dale Farm we are a happy community of supported people, staff and volunteers. We are a people centred service for adults with learning and/or physical disabilities; we provide people with disabilities meaningful work and opportunities.
Equality, diversity and inclusion is at the heart of everything we do. We aim to assess, advocate, support and provide training for everyone at the farm. We see ourselves as one happy farm family where anyone is welcome no matter their ability or disability.
Funding and Providers
Dale Farm is funded in two ways, through Dale Farm Trust and Wirral Evolutions.
Dale Farm Trust
Dale Farm Trust (registered charity 1156516) raises funds through the sale of our products and services, as well as generous donations. All funds support the projects, maintenance and materials essential to the farm’s effective operation.
Your support enables us to provide a wide range of services to the people we serve. We are deeply grateful to everyone who supports us—we could not do this without you.
Wirral Evolutions
Wirral Evolutions provides personalised day services and opportunities for adults with a range of learning and physical disabilities. As part of Wirral Borough Council’s adult social care department, it receives council funding for staff salaries, maintenance and farm support. Without this funding, meeting people’s support needs would be challenging.
Wirral Evolutions and Dale Farm work together to enrich the lives of people with learning and physical disabilities and help them fulfil their potential. Their shared mission is to inspire lives, remove barriers and broaden horizons for the people they support by:
- Enriching Lives
- Improving Wellbeing
- Developing Individuals
- Being Community Integrated

“I believe Dale Farm is the happiest place on earth; where students, staff and volunteers can grow and flourish alongside our environment.”
