Camphill Aberdeen City and Shire represents the shared interests of seven Camphill charities in the Aberdeen area.

The Camphill pioneers likened their first community in Aberdeen to lighting a candle on the hill.

Now that candle spreads its light widely.

More than 700 people live and work in Camphill Aberdeen City and Shire communities, offering education, therapies, training, work and living opportunities for vulnerable children, young people, adults and the elderly.

Internationally the Camphill Movement extends to more than 100 centres in 23 countries.
