 The National Farmers Network is a network of local farmer groups, organisations and networks across England. They come together to exchange ideas and good practice. These are challenging times for farmers and family farmers are the most likely to be affected. But we believe that by working together we can bring about positive changes to farming livelihoods and work towards a thriving family farming sector.
Oxfam
Oxfam has been working to end poverty in the UK since 1996. We develop projects with people in poverty to enable them to improve their lives and have a say in the decisions that affect them; we raise public awareness of poverty to create the pressure that is necessary for change; and we lobby government for policies that tackle the root causes of poverty. Although most of our work focuses on poverty in urban areas, we have been working on poverty amongst hill farmers since 2003.
