Ballywalter Young Farmers Club

Ballywalter Young Farmers Club We are an organisation ran by young people for young people! We meet every other Friday evening in Greyabbey Village Hall.

You dont have to be a farmer, to be a young farmer 👩‍🌾 Young Farmers' Clubs of Ulster (YFCU) was founded in 1929 by W.S Armour with the first club being established in Limavady. Over 80 years later, YFCU is still going from strength to strength with approx 60 clubs throughout Northern Ireland. YFCU represents the interests and aspirations of approx 3,000 members aged 12 - 25 years of age. A furthe

r 3,500 rural young people are estimated to take part in and benefit from local Young Farmers' Club activities and events. At the heart of the YFCU is an annual calendar of internally and externally accredited courses, competitions and events that are delivered under one of three main categories: agriculture; culture and the arts; and sports and social events. The calendar is designed to ensure that the programme of work offers something for everyone, from all backgrounds and abilities and at all levels of the association. Our programme of agri and rural development related activities (e.g. dairy, beef and sheep stockjudging, silage making and assessment, fencing, machinery handling and soil assessment) is complemented by a broader culture, sports and arts programme including public speaking, group debating, tag rugby, girls football and drama festivals all of which members enjoy participating in. In addition to the annual calendar of activities, we also provide a wide range of awareness campaigns such as our rural road safety campaign which aims to raise awareness of road safety amongst our members.

☀️ OUR CHARITY HORSE HACK ☀️

Yesterday saw us holding our Charity Horse Hack for the 2nd year running, and what another success it was!

Last year we held this event to raise money for the Air Ambulance and to support our member Ruby. This year, seeing Ruby enjoying the hack with her very own Danny was incredibly special 🐴❤️

We want to thank each and every person who came along yesterday afternoon, whilst raising vital funds for our chosen charity this year, Rural Support 💚

❗️ Rural Support provides confidential emotional, practical, financial and farm business support to farmers, farming families and rural communities across Northern Ireland.

🥕 Again, thank you to Spar Carrowdore for providing the refreshing carrots for all the ponies and horses.

🙋🏼‍♀️🙋‍♂️ To all the stewards who kept you safe on the road, thank you for giving up your time.

📸 Huge thank you to Dara for snapping up all of your smiles! Keep an eye on her page, Dara McCracken Photography as she will be posting her photos very soon!
