We are a leading UK charity supporting adults with learning disabilities, autism, and mental health support to lead a life of opportunity.
Wherever our support is located – urban or rural, it is shaped by the people we support and driven by our passion to see everyone as active citizens with a life of opportunity that is recognised, valued and appreciated. There are nine Camphill Village Trust communities across England, each in its own unique setting.
We explore with each person how we can support, encourage and empower them to make informed choices, gain life skills and contribute to society in a way that brings purpose and meaning to them.
Alongside the chance to make friends and build relationships, we offer opportunities for people with learning and other disabilities to learn and develop skills through a range of individual and shared activities, from our own established land and craft-based resources through to structured learning and therapeutic programmes, voluntary experience, and employment.

Co-Production is transforming the way we work with people with learning disabilities and autism. The result across Camphill Village Trust is challenging and inspirational to all. The people we support are growing in confidence.
Find out what is a learning disability, the difference between learning disabilities and learning difficulties and hear from the people we support.
Community has always, and will continue to be, central to the way Camphill Village Trust provides support to people with learning disabilities. Today, all of our communities are outward looking and work to be fully integrated within their locality, reflecting the many changes in wider society.
We understand that to provide support that is personalised and individual we must work in partnership with, listen to and involve our family members.
We offer a range of initiatives to provide support for people with learning disabilities and associated health conditions, including dementia support, positive behaviour support and work and voluntary opportunities.
