Yesterday, some of us from Camphill Devon joined t Yesterday, some of us from Camphill Devon joined the Pigment group in Buckfastleigh to celebrate the end of their course, after nearly six months of creativity and developing natural dyes.🌼

Throughout the course, the group planted seeds, watched the flowers grow and handpicked them to create their own natural dyes. They then used these dyes to design T-shirts and a variety of other lovely handcrafted items to take home with them.

The people we support have really enjoyed being part of the group, learning new skills and getting creative together. The summer months were particularly lovely with many sessions spent in the beautiful flower garden, enjoying the sunshine.

A big thank you to Sophie at Pigment for running the group and making the past six months such an enjoyable experience. 🌻

Today, we came together in the Land Barn for our M Today, we came together in the Land Barn for our Macmillan Coffee Morning, raising money for a brilliant cause.

As well as enjoying plenty of tea, coffee and cake, we had gingerbread decorating, games and other activities with all donations going towards Macmillan Cancer Support. Our residents and staff got involved, including decorating their own gingerbread people. 🍪

Pennies and 2ps were also collected to help fill our giant green dot and raise some extra funds!

It was lovely to see everyone getting involved and helping us raise money for Macmillan. 💚

A big thank you to everyone who organised the morning, took part and donated!

National Inclusion Week - Day 5 🎨 At Camphill Dev National Inclusion Week - Day 5 🎨

At Camphill Devon, our creative workshops are a space where everyone can get involved, have a go and express themselves in their own way.

Creativity gives people different ways to communicate. It doesn’t matter how you take part or what you create as everyone’s ideas, skills and contributions are valued.

For us, inclusion means creating spaces where everyone can take part, be creative and show their individuality.

🏃‍♀️ National Inclusion Week – Day 3 For Day 3 of 🏃‍♀️ National Inclusion Week – Day 3

For Day 3 of National Inclusion Week, which coincides with National Fitness Day, it only felt right to explore how Camphill Devon shows that physical activity can be inclusive, accessible and enjoyable for everyone! 💚

A few weeks ago we held our Kind Arthur Tournament, giving the people we support the chance to get involved, have fun and compete against each other in a range of physical activities - including football, basketball and of course, the ever popular welly throwing! 🥾

Alongside special events like this, Camphill Devon regularly supports a variety of activities to help everyone stay active, have fun and feel included. From Zumba and swimming sessions to skittles, there are plenty of opportunities for people to get moving in ways that work for them. 💪

Because inclusion means making sure everyone has the opportunity to take part, whatever their ability or experience. It’s about creating activities where everyone can participate in their own way, feel supported, be part of the team and most importantly, have fun together. ❤️

National Inclusion Week 2026 – Day 2 The 2026 Nat National Inclusion Week 2026 – Day 2

The 2026 National Inclusion Week theme is “Build Trust. Navigate Change.” It felt only right to celebrate Café Neuro today, as it perfectly demonstrates how the Camphill Devon community puts inclusivity into action; creating opportunities, building confidence and showing what inclusive working environments can look like every day.

The people we support are a valued part of the Café Neuro team. They work in the café, taking on a range of roles and contribute to making the café the welcoming and vibrant place it is. 💚

We also proudly display and sell artwork created by the people we support in our Camphill Devon workshops, giving them the opportunity to share their creativity with the local community. 🎨✨ 

For us, inclusion is about having a genuine place within the community - not only being included but being recognised as valued members of it.

Café Neuro demonstrates that everyone has something to offer and everyone deserves to feel included. 😊

National Inclusion Week 2026 💚 This week is Natio National Inclusion Week 2026 💚

This week is National Inclusion Week — a chance to think about what inclusion really means and how we can make sure everyone feels welcome, valued and included.

At Camphill Devon, inclusion is something we see every day. We support adults with learning disabilities, and we know how important it is for people to have a voice, make choices, be listened to and feel that they belong.

Inclusion isn’t just about inviting someone to take part, it’s about making sure they feel comfortable, supported and part of things when they do.

Sometimes it’s the little things that make the biggest difference:
💚 Listening to someone and giving them time to share their views
💚 Giving people choices and supporting them to make their own decisions
💚 Not making assumptions about what someone can or can’t do
💚 Thinking about what might make it easier for someone to take part
💚 Making sure everyone has a chance to be heard

Inclusion isn’t just for one week, it’s something we can all work on every day.

We’ll be sharing more throughout the week about what inclusion means to the people at Camphill Devon.

What does inclusion mean to you?
