Commonwork Land TrustWith a 500 acre site in Kent and a centre in central Maidstone, CWLT offers a range of creative experiences and opportunities to schools, colleges, community groups, organisations, companies and individuals from the public, private and voluntary sectors.
We are concerned to:
At Bore Place, CWLT is able to provide 'hands-on' experiences working with the organic farm which forms part of the same group. In our wider work, we take part in regional and national networks, contributing to the search for sustainable answers to local and global issues.
A manor house and group of historic farm buildings has been converted to form the Commonwork Centre, offering space for resident and non-resident groups to join in Commonwork projects or develop their own work. The gardens, managed organically, offer aesthetic and historical interest and include permaculture, wildlife and coppice areas. Contact: Lyn Kelly
Drawing on the full range of resources available the Education Programme provides an interdisciplinary programme of 'learning by doing' for school and community groups, and adults with fewer opportunities.
The brochures are 'pdf' (Acrobat
Reader format) files. If you do not have Acrobat Reader then click on
