Lord Dykes

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What steps they will take to support the National Care Farming Initiative in its efforts to expand its database. [HL3612]

The Minister of State, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
(Lord Rooker)

The Government recognise the valuable work carried out by care farms and support the National Care Farming Initiative's plans to create a database of all care farming providers. I will be visiting a long established care farm, Highfields Happy Hens, on 22 May.
