Each team member brings a unique set of skills alongside accredited training and a thorough grounding in the principles of health and social care. Our diverse team is made up of specialists in animal husbandry, horticulture, agriculture, and woodwork as well as clinical practitioners and educators.
Our Programs
We run three core programs to support our participants' needs.
Skills for independence
This programme focuses on learning and practising new skills, giving individuals opportunities to care for themselves, the land and each other, supporting self-determination, respect and equality.
Healthy living
Our programme uses the outdoor environment and activities to increase physical and mental wellbeing, from cooking and eating fresh produce to enjoying physical work and learning how to support our own mental health.
Skills for a working life
Developed for individuals who are looking to enter the workplace in a voluntary or paid role, this programme provides opportunities to develop work skills and prepare for a real working environment.
