RABI provides continuous care and support for retired farmers and farm workers in need.

This is achieved in three ways:

Welfare and Wellbeing

RABI's professionally qualified welfare team are fully trained in all the complexities of the state benefits system.

Working sensitively and in complete confidence, our welfare officers help people to help themselves, by claiming pension credits and other state entitlements.

Continuous Care

Grants and Awards are made every six weeks by RABI's dedicated grants committee, although urgent cases can be 'fast-tracked'.

RABI beneficiaries can receive:

Quarterly and seasonal grants

TV licence fees (under 75s) and telephone rental costs

Hampers or flowers for Christmas and birthdays

Elderly and disabled holidays.

Special Situations

Money is given to provide for particular needs:

Replacement televisions, washing machines, fridges and other white goods

Beds and other essential household items

Electrically powered mobility vehicles.

The quicker you let us know your circumstances the quicker we can get some assistance to you. All calls are treated with complete confidentiality. Once you have made contact, arrangements will be made for a welfare officer to visit.
