Brandon Wood Farm - Print version

Day opportunity service.

What is on offer?

Brandon Wood Farm is a day opportunity service for adults with learning disabilities, autism and complex needs.

The farm is in a rural area and offers an abundance of tranquil outdoor space where individuals can be themselves.

The service is for individuals who cannot manage mainstream activities and may require a more bespoke day option. We support individuals from all circumstances, from those leaving school to those in their twilight years that still want to spend days outdoors.

Brandon Wood Farm offers:

• Animal therapy with a selection of small and large breed animals
• Access a multi-sensory room when necessary or as part of a daily calming strategy
• Vegetables and plant growing in the garden and polytunnels
• Calming field walks
• Relaxing sessions in the sensory garden and listening to the aviary birds.

Throughout his life, he has been a square peg in a round hole. He now has somewhere he fits.

Parent of an attendee

When there is a problem, Brandon Wood Farm staff always try to resolve it before calling me. In past experiences, I would be called to pick them up and take them home.
