We are also home to Cafe 1903, a dog-friendly cafe on the other side of our campus. We have free parking and a variety of hot food and drink. We provide Hands on Learning through land based and creative craft based activities in a friendly and supportive setting.

Our campus is not just home to our students, but also to a wonderful variety of animals.

Here’s a little snapshot of some of the friendly faces you might spot when visiting - from feathered friends to furry companions 🦆🐝

Dance Club!

We have some wonderful videos of one of our students enjoying Dance Club - full of energy, confidence, and joy!

It’s fantastic to see our students expressing themselves, building confidence, and having so much fun through dance.

With the warmer weather these recent months, it’s been the perfect opportunity for our students to get outside and enjoy some gardening.

They have been working hard to develop their skills in planting, watering, weeding, and caring for outdoor spaces, all while enjoying the fresh air and sunshine.

It’s been wonderful to see their confidence grow alongside the gardens they’ve been helping to nurture.

A huge thank you to our amazing volunteers!

A massive thank you to the volunteers from Rentokil Pest Control UK and Careers at Arcus for the incredible hard work they put into our site on Wednesday. The difference they’ve made in just one day is truly outstanding!

Thanks to their efforts:

Our forest is now well hydrated
Our lawns are prepared and ready for students to enjoy
We have a brand new welcome area at the Enterprise Hub
The ducks are well on their way to having a safe home
The bee keeping area is now fully usable
The flowerbeds around the hall have been fully restored
Our outdoor entertainment space has been transformed with a fire pit
And the hedges are looking neater than ever

That’s an incredible amount to achieve in just one day!
We thoroughly enjoyed meeting every single one of you and hope you enjoyed your time with us.

Thank you all again- your support makes such a difference to our site, staff and students.
