Supporting adults with a learning disability to reach maximum potential and to live fulfilling lives

Our mission is to create a living and working community where people with learning disabilities may reach their full potential in the spirit of lifelong learning. We want to see a world where each person is appreciated and accepted for their unique abilities. And where there are centres where people with special needs are encouraged and supported to reach their potential through the experience of living and working in a community with others.
Why the community needs this charity

At Camphill Milton Keynes we will strive to create a community that is both supportive and empowering to all.Our goal is to provide a strong supportive centre where residents can gain self-confidence,personal independence and a sense of worth, within a safe and enabling community environment. We wish to support them in leading as independent a life as they are able within the context of the wider community.

Results and outcomes

We recognise the uniqueness of each individual within our community and encourage each person to realise their own potential. We aim to provide and will access life long learning opportunities, from both within and outside of our community.The suburban environment allows us to benefit from this unique opportunity - through our café, theatre, bakery, and garden produce our residents integrate into the wider community and this allows us to challenge preconceived ideas about disability
