    Our seven charities
    1. Beannachar Camphill Community[+]
      Training for young adults for life. Beannachar offers residential and day places to young people, aged 18 to 30, with learning disabilities and other support needs. Our aim is to enable each individual to develop their potential and to mature, ready for their next step in life. By making their unique contribution in the community and being included in decision-making, students are encourage to take responsibility for their own lives.
    2. Camphill School Aberdeen[+]
      An inclusive approach to education, care and health. Our trained staff practice an integrated approach to respond creatively to the needs and potential of each pupil. We offer day, residential and respite places within our pupil-centred programmes. Our pioneering Nature Nurture® early intervention project and Amber Kindergarten promote inclusion and education within the natural environment.
    3. Camphill Wellbeing Trust [+]
      An integrated and creative approach to healthcare. The trust's main mission is to help as many people as possible, whether in good health or ill health and regardless of their financial status, to enjoy a better quality of life in the widest and deepest sense. We provide an integrated service of quality anthroposophic therapies, treatments and education which treat the whole person. Camphill Wellbeing Trust researches, develops and promotes anthroposophic therapies and treatments, in an environment where staff can practice anthroposophic healthcare.
    4. Milltown Camphill Community[+]
      Responding to individual needs. At Milltown, we have created a community in response to local needs, while fostering a global outlook. We provide a home and workplaces for adults with differing support needs. We aim to respond flexibly to the individual and create valuable links with the wider community, locally and globally.
    5. Newton Dee Community [+]
      Making a difference together. Our community offers a home, meaningful work and personal development opportunities for some 200 adults. Around half have learning disabilities and additional support needs. Our various social enterprises produce quality goods and valued services. Our gift shop, cafe and bakery are favourite focal points for interaction with the wider community.
    6. Simeon Care for the Elderly[+]
      Caring companionship. Simeon Care for the Elderly offers companionship, personal and nursing care to older people. Moving from your own home to a care home is a life changing event. Sadly, all too often, this is seen as the end of real life. But, in Simeon we see it differently. We believe that the whole of a person's life has significance, meaning and purpose.
    7. Tigh a'Chomainn[+]
      Supported independence: At Tigh a'Chomainn we aim to support adults with special needs to explore their potential, so that they may find purpose, direction and a sense of fulfilment in their lives. Our community provides a stable and secure home life, which enables people to lead a valued life and contribute to the wider community.
