Activities

Hands in the soil, a song, a warm pot of soup

Ordinary things that matter. Everything we make or harvest is actually used.

Who it is for

Perhaps this sounds familiar

  • The days feel long

    You live at home, but miss having people around you. With us there is always coffee, a chat and something to do.

  • Your memory sometimes lets you down

    A steady rhythm, familiar faces and things your hands still know. Our support workers are used to memory problems.

  • You care for someone

    You want your father, mother or partner to have a good day. And you need a little time for yourself too.

My mother comes home with soil under her nails and a story to tell. We had not heard that in a long time.
