Our Mission

Good Hope Farm is a registered Community Interest Company (CIC) for the benefit of adults with Learning Disabilities and the local community.

Good Hope Farm is being designed as a small organic farm growing vegetables, fruit, flowers, and herbs.

The farm will be a day centre offering work experience for adults with Learning disabilities and difficulties, where they can learn and engage in purposeful, stimulating activities while connecting with nature and interacting with peers and the surrounding community.

We intend to offer a safe, stimulating and nurturing environment for adults with special needs: building confidence, self-expression and promoting well-being through outdoor activities and a sustaining connection with the natural world.
The Good Exchange

We are currently fundraising at The Good Exchange.

 


As we grow, our immediate need is to get a room where we can accommodate clients and their carers (at least 8 people ideally), our wooden shed just isn't big enough! We call it our Hub Space.

Our Philosophy

We believe contact with the natural world and the promotion of mindfulness brings a sense of well-being, recovery and relaxation. This is fundamental for adults with Learning Disabilities, who often are limited in their experiences of the world and especially lack access to nature.    

Vision

Our aim is to empower individuals, to allow them to grow into the world and fulfil their potential. We want to provide stimulating real-world experiences so individuals can benefit from, and contribute to, the local and wider communities.

Workshops

Once the farm is established, we will run regular workshops that focus on various creative pursuits such as art, dance, music and product making (soap and hand made garden design products). We also hold yoga and meditation sessions to promote spiritual well-being and mindfulness.

Confidence

Our programmes are designed to promote and encourage self-confidence in individuals. We provide opportunity for a productive and purposeful work structure and daily routine.
