vermin help

Hi all,
New to this site, and will apologise in advance as my request has probably been posted previously by many others.
My daughter (aged 21) and myself (aged 43) are seeking permission to shoot over land (mid/south Devon). This would be for the purpose of vermin control (rabbit, fox and corvids) also zeroing as required. We are both members of a local shooting club and have experience in use of many different calibers however for the purpose of vermin control will be focussing on .22lr, .223(moderated) and shotgun.
Ideally the land will have been previously police approved for said calibers, however not essential as will request clearance with FAC application (providing back stops and acreage are sufficient).
Having visited dozens of farms in person, I am now trying to reach a wider audience.
I fully appreciate that this is a big ask, especially as we are unknown amongst the farming community and common sense tells you to stick with those you know. However coming from a club background, safety is always paramount.
We would be very grateful to anyone who feels they are in a position to help us and in return hopefully we may help you, not only with vermin control but extra eyes around a farm are always beneficial with regards to security.
Many thanks
