Story

Spadework bridges the gap for adults with learning difficulties and other disabilities, from dependence in a supportive environment, to increasing their independence, enabling them to live with dignity and purpose.

The aim of Spadework is to enable people with learning disabilities (Trainees) to develop their independence and personal skills through being involved in everything we do. The Trainees produce the plants that are sold in the garden centre and the fruit and vegetables served in the café and sold in the farm shop; they help to make cakes, jams and chutneys and serve customers in the café and in the farm shop.

The Garden Centre, Farm Shop and Café in Offham are all open each day to the general public, which enables the trainees to interact with the customers, helping to improve their social skills, which in turn can increase their confidence and self-esteem.

Spadework rely on donations and support from fundraising events, so
on Sunday the 20th of May 2018 James McGrath and Carly Broad will be walking barefoot over hot embers or stones to raise funds for this amazing cause.
