Camphill communities in the UK and Ireland offer sector leading care to people with learning disabilities and mental health issues. The Camphill approach to social care works with mainstream healthcare and complements it with approaches and therapies which often have their roots in anthroposophical approaches to care – holistic care in an intentional community setting which espouses life-sharing at its heart.

The Camphill Foundation supports the work of Camphill communities and initiatives in the UK and the Republic of Ireland. It does this by offering small grants and low interest loans which are often needed to kickstart a project. The work of the Foundation is only possible due to the regular donations and legacies it receives.
