Esk Valley Camphill Community

Academic Thomas Moore spent three months in our community and went on to write this thoughtful article exploring life in Esk Valley Camphill Community and what our way of living might offer for the future of social care.

His experience raises important questions about how we think about care, belonging and community.

We’re delighted to share his reflections and to be part of this wider conversation about what good care and community can look like.

Read the full article in The Conversation, and please share it with anyone you think might be interested.
