The Bishop’s Meadow Trust

We protect a unique and ancient part of Farnham's agricultural heritage for the enjoyment of people and to provide a very precious wild life corridor.

Every single donation helps us to be able to do the work to do. The more we raise from our members' donations the safer the future of the Meadow is.
