FAQs about leaving a gift in your Will
How will my gift to Bath City Farm be used?
Thank you for choosing to consider a gift to Bath City Farm. Every pound that is kindly donated goes straight to work keeping the Farm working and open as a much-loved green space offering vital support to the local community. It costs the Farm £2,600 a day to run our groups, pay our staff team, and keep the site running and free to visit.
