NFYFC has redeveloped the Farm Safety Curve module with The Farm Safety Foundation to make it even easier for clubs to run during a club meeting. More than 3,000 YFC members have benefited from NFYFC’s Curve training module that was developed with The Farm Safety Foundation and it is hoped that even more YFC members will now get to enjoy the course.
Our aim is for all YFC members to be aware of the dangers and for all clubs to deliver the Farm Safety Curve module.
This Farm Safety Week 2020 (18-22 July), we are encouraging Clubs and Counties to pledge their commitment to putting NFYFC’s Farm Safety Curve training module back on their club programmes for 2022-23.
Pledges can be downloaded below to use on social media during the week. If you have already received the training, there are some social media assets that you can use to join in during the week too and spread the positive message that you have done the course and are staying safe!

Curve training sessions can be delivered by a YFC trainer registered with NFYFC. Trainers are provided with a training plan and all the resources needed for a fun, informative session within your Club Programme including a certificate of completion. The sessions usually last around one and half hours.
If you would like to become a YFC trainer for your county so you can deliver the training module, find out about the course here.
