Comments taken from Annual Quality Questionnaire

We feel that our son is very fulfilled in Glasallt Fawr. The countryside around is glorious and there are many walks and seaside visits possible. Sam adores animals and the farming activities are perfect for him. Sam has real friendships with the other residents who are all around his own age. The staff arrange imaginative trips to theatres, concerts, steam railways, gardens and other local attractions. There are regular visits to the library, the swimming pool and the riding stables. The staff keep us well informed about Sam’s daily activities as Sam has restricted language. We are delighted that he attends Church regularly. Other excellent activities include gardening, life skills, brilliant art & craft work and of course Sam’s favourite, farm workshops. We find the regular parent’s weekends very helpful and everyone feels part of an extended family with strong Camphill ideals. There is much, much more and our thanks to you all.

Mr & Mrs Edwards

Our son Mathew has Down’s syndrome. He moved to Glasallt Fawr in September 2010 having previously spent 3 years at a Mencap residential college. Glasallt Fawr provides a safe, caring environment and Mathew has settled in well. Each day is structured to provide activities both on and off the site, encompassing a variety of workshops, social activities and outings. Living at Glasallt Fawr allows Mathew to continue to develop independence and the staff are open to tailoring his timetable to suit his particular interests and needs.

Mr & Mrs Burden

My daughter has grown in so many positive ways, she has become a confident and caring person. Knowing she is a valued member of a loving community where she can express herself without feeling the odd one out, as she has felt most of her life at home, trying so hard to fit into a life that does not understand her.

Mrs Curtis

We have found Glasallt Fawr to be a wonderful place for our son David to live. He is encouraged to be as independent as he can be, and he is in a happy and supportive environment, he enjoys his life here and has a good social life.

Mr & Mrs Ireland

Four and a half years ago we were in despair of finding a suitable residential community for our son. He had been at home for nine months following deterioration in his behaviour at his previous residential placement, and understandably people were reluctant to take him on. Glasallt Fawr was prepared to give him a chance for an initial three month trial. Since then his behaviour has been transformed and we now have a son who looks wonderfully well and is obviously very happy, and we cannot thank the staff enough for what they have achieved.
