About Camphill

Camphill Communities of Ireland is part of an international movement working with people with intellectual disabilities and other kinds of special needs.

In Camphill our residents share their home, spiritual and working lives with those who are motivated to meet others as individuals needing support and recognition for who they are, and not as carer and cared for in the conventional sense. Many of the people providing support to those with disabilities are volunteers, coming locally or from abroad, working alongside professional qualified social care staff.

Camphill is a way of life, where each person according to ability contributes what they can towards the well-being of the other.

Pioneered by war refugees in Scotland almost 70 years ago, Camphill today numbers over 100 communities in 20 countries. In the Republic of Ireland, 16 communities of varying sizes and settings are home to around 200 residents and people in supported living arrangements, plus a nearly 100 day-attendees and trainees

Each person with a disability supported by Camphill has different needs. Camphill has responded by establishing centres that cater to those needs, constantly adapting itself to meet changes and challenges as they arise.

At the core of the community is the recognition of the dignity of people with support needs, and the giving and sharing of all in communal life.

In Camphill, we believe that mutual support and respect for each other create a healthy environment for healing and development.
