Who We Are

A registered charity formed 50 years ago, specifically to provide rehabilitation and training for adults with recurring mental ill health or with a learning disability.

The Charity’s aim is to provide a safe environment where people are able to build or rebuild their skills, confidence and, where possible, move into full employment.

The Charity started in a building loaned from the then Reading based company, Huntley and Palmer, before moving to Caversham, with the support of Courage Brewery, then also based in Reading.

In June 2014 the Charity's Caversham site, housing the warehouse, Greenboro, Caverill and the canteen, relocated to Manor Farm, Rotherfield Peppard. So now the four areas of the Charity are on one site.  (at last!)

The four areas of the Charity are:

A light commercial packing and repackaging operation which offers contract packing, e.g., shrink-wrapping, collation, hand finishing, assembling point-of-sale displays and packing products for retail sales.

A canteen operation which has a mixture of domestic and commercial catering equipment. Allows learning of skills for independent living and gives experience for catering employment opportunities. CLOSED AT PRESENT

Caverill is a small ‘own product’ operation, e.g., microwaveable oat filled heat packs, which take the place of the traditional hot water bottles and are safer to use.  Caverill has recently expanded to include bespoke soft furnishing design projects for customers.  NOT AVAILABLE AT PRESENT

Greenshoots, the Charity’s Plant Nursery, where beneficiaries learn all about growing plants - fruit, vegetables, annuals & perennials.
