Turning SEND Schools into Talent Pipelines 🐝

At WoodMor Foundation, we don’t see "disability." We see resilience. 🎯

We partner with SEND colleges across England to bridge the gap between education and employment. How? Through the power of the apiary. 🍯

What we teach:

🔹Composure: You can't rush 50,000 bees. It’s the ultimate de-escalation training.

🔹 Business: Students manage everything from extraction to branding.

🔹 Evidence: We replace paper CVs with MeMovies™—proving their skills on film. 🎥

We’re helping school leavers move from "supported learning" into meaningful careers. 📈

The Result: A more inclusive, resilient workforce.

Join the movement.
Follow our impact journey.

🐝 A Buzzing Partnership for World Bee Day! 🐝

On this World Bee Day, we’re thrilled to share a truly special collaboration that’s creating real impact! The WoodMor Foundation and Little Gate Farm have officially joined forces to revolutionise employability—empowering individuals with learning disabilities and autism to gain skills, confidence, and paid employment through the transformative art of beekeeping.
🌿 Introducing 'Becoming a Beekeeper' 🌿
The WoodMor Foundation’s ‘Becoming a Beekeeper’ programme fits perfectly within the nurturing environment of Little Gate Farm. Through hands-on experience with bee husbandry, participants will develop essential employability skills like teamwork, problem-solving, and communication—all captured in their unique MeMovie®, providing compelling proof of their abilities to potential employers.
🚀 Why It Matters 🚀
By working together, WoodMor and Little Gate Farm are breaking barriers to employment, promoting inclusivity, and ensuring participants have the tools to thrive.
"It’s an incredible, caring, kind, and supportive environment. We couldn’t be happier to partner with Little Gate Farm, and we can’t wait to see this initiative in action!" – Matthew Wood, Founder, WoodMor Foundation
"Bee husbandry will bring immense employment skills to our participants, and with the addition of the MeMovie®️, they’ll be even better equipped to move forward into meaningful work." – Hannah Briars, Head of Little Gate Farm
Together, we’re making a real difference—and what better way to celebrate World Bee Day than by helping future beekeepers take flight! 🐝✨

Let’s spread the buzz! Share the news and help us champion diversity, inclusivity, and opportunity.

Mental Health Awareness Week (12–18 May 2025) is all about the power of community. Let's take a moment to recognise the importance of supporting those living with mental health experiences and fostering a compassionate, understanding environment.
💚 Together, we thrive 💚
Mental health is not just an individual journey—it’s shaped by the people around us. Whether it’s a friend checking in, a workplace prioritising wellbeing, or a local group offering support, community makes a difference.
🌍 How can we support each other?
• Listen without judgment—sometimes, a conversation can be the lifeline someone needs.
• Encourage open dialogue—breaking the stigma starts with honest conversations.
• Offer resources—whether it’s professional help or peer support, knowing where to turn is crucial.
• Celebrate small victories—every step forward matters.
• Whether you're at home or work there should always be someone to reach out to.

Let’s use this week to amplify voices, share experiences, and build stronger connections. Mental health matters every day, but this week is a reminder that no one should face it alone.

Celebrating World Autism Awareness Day with The WoodMor Foundation!
Today, we're celebrating the brilliance and uniqueness of the autistic community. At The WoodMor Foundation, we believe that diversity isn’t just a goal—it’s the foundation of a better, more inclusive world.
💡 Our mission is simple yet powerful:
We strive to eradicate social exclusion by creating employability opportunities for under-represented communities. Through our employability initiatives, we provide the evidence needed to improve possibilities of employment and therefore increase diversity within the workplace. Our innovative, Becoming a Beekeeper, programme culminates in the creation of a one-of-a-kind MeMovie®️, capturing individual journeys and celebrating achievements.
Did you know only 30% of autistic people are in any type of employment!
This World Autism Awareness Day, let’s champion inclusivity in the workplace and beyond. Together, we can create environments where every talent is recognised, every voice is heard, and every individual feels empowered to thrive.
If you are a SEND college who would like to find out more about our innovative programmes please get in touch with [email protected]

Celebrate with us this World by joining the 5k sponsored in Battersea Park, London, in aid of the National Autistic Society.
