Active Citizens is a part of Windmill Hill City Farm’s Community Programmes.

The purpose of Active Citizens is to use the internet to help people connect with local issues and each other. By doing so we hope to support people connecting with each other in 'the real world'.

We are developing volunteering projects for everyone to get involved in at the farm, supporting people to develop their own volunteer projects and supporting volunteering opportunities within the local and wider community.
