Rent is often charged, the max that can be charged is £63.70 per week (increases 1st April 2024 - £69.93) - but each farm is different so we would let you know the specifics before you started work.

Rates of pay can vary, the minimum you will earn is £10.42 per hr (those 22 and under may be paid a lower rate in line with the NMW legislation) holiday pay is paid when you leave or take holiday. Wages are often paid weekly in arrears. Targets are often set by clients and this means that sometimes you can earn more than the hourly rate. from the 1st April 2024 the minimum pay rate increases to £11.44 per hr.
