RABI has been announced as a joint Official Charity Partner for the inaugural Great British Farm-Fest, taking place 22-24 May 2026 at Stoneleigh Park. The partnership provides an important opportunity to increase awareness of RABI’s support services and showcase FarmersAid ahead of its launch, while connecting directly with a key farming audience.

The festival is expected to attract thousands of visitors from across the agricultural sector and rural community, creating a valuable platform for RABI to engage with farming people. In addition to the audience attending the event itself, the promotion and media coverage in the lead-up to the festival will also help amplify RABI’s visibility.

As part of the collaboration, RABI will support the festival’s Farming Heroes initiative, which celebrates individuals across the agricultural sector who demonstrate resilience, innovation and dedication in their work. The initiative provides a positive platform to share real stories from farming while highlighting the challenges many in the sector face.

The partnership is particularly valuable as it allows us to continue building awareness of FarmersAid within a high-profile farming environment, helping generate momentum ahead of the official launch.

Being named an Official Charity Partner helps strengthen RABI’s visibility across the sector, engage new audiences and reinforce awareness that support is available to farming people every day of the year.

Nominations are open online now, until 22 April. You can nominate your farming hero here.

RABI will also have a presence throughout the festival, giving visitors the opportunity to meet the team, learn more about the charity’s support services and explore the FarmersAid initiative ahead of its official launch on 4 June 2026. The stand will offer a chance for farming people to find out more about the practical, financial and emotional support available from RABI, as well as how FarmersAid will help strengthen emergency preparedness on farms.

Visitors attending the festival are encouraged to stop by the RABI stand to learn more about the charity’s work and the upcoming FarmersAid launch.
