Haven Community (previously DCF Premier Workshops)

We encourage our members, adults with Learning needs or physical impairment, to focus on their abilities and to undertake work that is stimulating and interesting. Through our activities and occasional outings, we try to ensure that that our members have the same opportunities as everyone else, therefore enjoying social interaction, experiences, challenges and the outdoors. We never set limits on any person’s individual potential.
People really enjoy the skills learned, the encouragement and support from each other, producing craft items such as cane work, cards soft toys and so on. There are also occasions where members can make their own cakes or biscuits.
It is our intention to do some wood-working in the near future, perhaps restoring items for other charities. We look to find ways of encouraging our members to take more of an active interest in our garden, a substantial part having been recently transformed.
