About L'Arche
Our Community includes over 30 people with learning disabilities, who we support at home and in our workshops. Alongside them are our faithful community members, volunteers, friends, and neighbours, all of whom play an integral role in fostering a warm and inclusive atmosphere. Additionally, our team of dedicated L’Arche assistants adds further support and care to our core members.
We also have a wide-ranging programme of day activities, which is open to people with disabilities living in or outside L’Arche. We work with individuals to develop daily living skills, we make space for creativity and fun and we are passionate about helping people to reach their goals.
The hubs for our activities programme is our two amazing workshops. Our large community garden workshop is where we support people to harvest and grow fruit, vegetables and flowers. We sell some of our produce locally and share the rest between our Community houses and friends. In our craft workshop, people make and sell beautiful products, such as handmade cards, candles, embroideries and much more. Our talented drama group creates its productions, scripts, costumes and props from scratch and performs in local churches and theatres.
