FWAG was first established as a charity in the 1960s by a group of forward thinking farmers who saw that the environment was an important part of a successful farming business. For more than four decades, FWAG provided trusted, independent environmental advice to the farming community, building a reputation for its ethical ethos and high standards of service. The organisation helped farmers understand the environmental value of their land and make the most of the agri-environment options available. The FWAG Association succeeded FWAG in 2011. It represents a coming together of the local Farming & Wildlife Advisory Groups that continue to serve the farming community up and down the country today, according to the original FWAG standards and values.
Farming Help promotes three farming charities for when times get tough and people within the agricultural community need support to get through. The charities involved are The Addington Fund, The Farming Community Network and The Royal Agricultural Benevolent Institution (RABI).
