A therapy farm has received a visit from estate agents bearing gifts worth £500.
Staff from Palmer & Partners made the visit to Wellies-On on Mersea Road, Abberton.
It was the result of a nomination to the firm's 500 club which supports community interest organisations.
Wellies-On relies on donations to look after their animals and maintain their services which support children and adults who are referred by schools, colleges and social services.
The farm was delighted with the donation especially as the winter weather conditions can make it more challenging to progress with building work and repairs.
While visiting the team Alfie, Melanie and James from the 500 club committee were able to see the farm in action on a guided tour with some of the children who are supported by the organisation.
A spokesperson for Palmer & Partners said: “Wellies-On are obviously extremely passionate about what they do at the farm, their animals and their community.
“If you are interested in supporting local organisations through the 500 club please contact administration@palmerpartners500club.org.”
