The momentum generated by this petition has surpassed my initial expectations. I am encouraged to see this growing recognition of our mission to provide farm-based opportunities at Stratheden.

The refusal of our request for a lease at NHS Stratheden continues to restrict the essential work we provide for those with additional support needs. We are currently preparing a formal appeal to challenge this decision and ensure our farming base remains viable for the future.

Hi, I am a local teacher who works in an additional support needs setting and have witnessed first hand Lucky Ewe's good work in operation. I thoroughly recommend their application for the lease of this land to be accepted. My postcode is Cupar, KY154QG. Thanks John
As a Cupar resident I strongly support this organisation's bid to purchase this land at Stratheden Hospital. It is land which has not been used by the hospital since the 1970s and there is no prospect whatsoever of it being brought into use by the NHS or Fife Council.
KY15 5AD (Springfield) Transferring the land to Lucky Ewe will allow for much more community involvement in the invaluable work the charity does for young people with additional support needs. The present location is not convenient for most people to get to.
Massive lack of facilities of this kind. This is vital for families with children with autism currently failed by the system, not in schools and unable to access college or work without developing skills and confidence and needing ways to progress and live life. Not everyone can buy their own farm!
Lucky Ewe has benefited many of our pupils with additional support needs at Auchmuty High School. it has provided them with an opportunity to develop their life skills as well as learning other new skills. It has had such a positive impact.
What a wonderful endeavour, creating a safe and supportive space for people and sheep alike. I look forward to the day when this is the norm. Thank you for your courage and determination. Warmest wishes from South Australia 5211
What a fantastic project.

Lucky Ewe has proven itself to be a major support for me in terms of both my mental and physical health & wellbeing. It deserves every opportunity to thrive and grow. More land would mean more people like me could benefit from all they have to offer the community. (Postcode: KY4 8BQ).
