Our Successful Net-Walking Event!

Following the success of our first Net-walking event at our farm in Apperknowle in August, we will be hosting the second event in October.

Apperknowle Farm is located in the beautiful small village of Apperknowle, Dronfield, and has over 7 acres of land from which to deliver our animal care and horticulture curriculum. It is one of six sites that make up Landmarks Specialist College.

The event in August was attended by 25 local businesses in the Sheffield/Rotherham area. Unlike other networking events, this was an opportunity to Network with a difference! As part of the net-walk around our farm participants were able to meet, play and feed our animals such as:

  • Chickens
  • Pigs
  • Sheep
  • Horses
  • Calves

Feedback from the event has been extremely positive and many businesses asked if this would become a regular event.

‘Thank you for the fantastic event on Tuesday! It was definitely one of the best and most innovative events I have been to, and what an incredible organisation!’ – Kirsty White – Strategic Partnerships Manager at Cavendish Cancer Care.
