Wishanger Wellness

Wishanger Wellness is a registered charity whose charitable purpose is to promote and protect physical and mental health by providing opportunities to access open spaces which it shall do by harnessing the healing power of the natural environment (ecotherapy).  The charity has been transferred a unique space (Tara’s Farm) for this purpose and will be sharing Tara’s Farm to provide vital access to open space for those in our communities whose well-being would benefit most from being in this unique location, while also ensuring the habitat and environment are protected for generations to come.

Sustainably managed to increase biodiversity and harness the healing power of nature

Our mission

The charity recognises its fortunate position in owning Tara’s Farm. It is dedicated to using the farm to improve individual people’s lives through agricultural or forestry activities, enabling individuals to experience this special part of the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on a farm that is run for the benefit of both the fauna and flora, as well as for the improvement of individual users’ well-being. 

News

Dan & Toby Brown have been on site during November 2025 using their wonderful team of Comptois horses to clear an area of Scots Pine in preparation for heathland regeneration.

We were delighted to be joined by Surrey Wildlife Trust and the Amphibian and Reptile Conservation Trust together with our neighbours from RSPB Farnham Heath and CRT Pierrepont Farm to watch the horses work and discuss opportunities for better connectivity and habitat enhancement between our sites.

If you would like to see more of the horses at work Dan has captured the project on his Instagram
