Ethos

The Project is founded upon a Christian concern for the needs of people with learning disabilities and strives to serve individual cultural and spiritual needs. Everyone at the Project is expected to  regard their work as a way of life embracing an attitude of love and care for others.  Students and staff are welcome to join in the celebrations of the principal Christian festivals.

It is important that those who wish to come to the Project do so having made an informed decision. We recommend an informal visit which may be followed by a trial stay during which the prospective student can form an opinion of the Project, and staff can assess whether services are appropriate.
