Our Vision

“We stimulate learning by doing, creating a sense of community, purpose and belonging.”

Our vision is that everyone, no matter where they are from, has an opportunity to engage with rural life and the environment, to challenge assumptions and form positive, responsible futures for themselves, their community and the environment.

Since 1976, many thousands of children and young people from all over the UK have benefitted from their time at Shallowford, and the experience has changed countless lives.  Successive generations have returned again and again to a place they trust and love.

During term time we host schools for residential visits of varying duration, as well as day trips for local community schools. Youth, family and community groups are welcomed at weekends and during the school holidays – but we have a flexible programme and always do our best to accommodate special requests. That way, we can reach out to as many people as possible.

Please get in touch if you would like more information – we would love to hear from you.
