Three-year-old Grace Weightman contracted pneumococcal meningitis last February, which left her with mobility issues and deafness. She was fast tracked on a cochlear implant programme and was extremely fortunate to receive bilateral cochlear implants.

Grace's parents Catherine and William had always planned to launch a farming business aimed at teaching children about rural life but since Grace's disabilities were diagnosed, they became even more aware of the importance of finding places to suit her needs and wanted to design a unique facility which could be accessed by all, including children with sensory disabilities.

Inspired by Grace and her 19-month-old sister Hannah, 'Down at the Farm' is intended to be an educational initiative which will attract both families and school groups.
