The first annual National Farm Attraction Network (NFAN) conference was held in 2001. It’s aimed at farmers who wish to diversify into leisure and tourism, existing farm and rural attraction operators and NFAN trade and supplier members.
The title of this year’s event is Partnering for Success and several of the speakers will be from organisations which are able to advise and assist members in a variety of ways and in a range of different, key areas of operation.
Highlights of the conference include the Farm Attraction of the Year Award 2009. The winners are: Category A (75,000 plus visitors a year) – Head of Ayr Farm Park, Ayr, Ayrshire; Category B (20,000-75,000 visitors a year) - Park Hall - The Countryside Experience; and Category (20,000 and under visitors a year) - Hall Farm Park, Lincolnshire.
The NFAN is a co-operative group set up to provide professional assistance and support to farm and rural diversification enterprises. Offering professional advice and guidance, the NFAN is driven by membership feedback and current issues. It provides for the specific needs of rural businesses throughout the UK, defining the key challenges facing members to ensure they receive the right support to meet their individual requirements. Members are able to receive advice on a wide range of subjects, including planning legislation, business rates, health and safety, insurance, grant aid, animal welfare, zoo licensing and accountancy and taxation, among others.
