Testimonials

It is wonderful to have the new toilet facility in the Garden Workshop. It makes such a difference to the feel of the workshop to have a modern toilet available to everyone, and it’s easy to keep clean meaning there is more time to focus on workshop activities. It is especially pleasing that along with the path works, the design of the toilet increases our accessibility, meaning wheelchair users are able to join the Workshop. As our residents age and mobility issues become more common, this will ensure individuals can continue to attend the Workshop. Finally, it is so nice to know that wherever we turn on a hot water tap in the Workshop, hot water comes out!

From all our residents, volunteers and staff, thank you so much for the support of the Foundation.

The grant played an extremely important part in our fundraising as it was one of the first commitments we received. I was thus able to include this commitment in my applications to other Trusts, which encouraged them to support us also. ‘Success breeds success’ is an important adage in fundraising and we are very grateful for the support we received from The Camphill Foundation.

Thanks to the Camphill Foundation grant, the Hub project is taking shape. There have been challenges and hiccups enough, which present an interesting (and we hope fruitful) learning curve. The planned timeframe is surely being stretched out, though this has allowed more content in.

We would like to express our deepest gratitude for your generous grant towards our project ‘Living History’. Your contribution makes further work possible and gives us courage to complete the project! We hope that the results will be of interest and use to Camphill around the world, but also to other institutions.

Having support like yours very much encourages more people to get behind our campaign and we thank you for helping to transform our vision into a reality. Your funds are helping us open our doors to more vulnerable young people in crisis who are living with learning disabilities and complex additional support needs.
