Blair Drummond

About the community

Camphill Blair Drummond is a growing community of over 200 people. Working to realise the potential of every member, whether as one of our 95 residents and day students with a particular support need, 37 volunteers from many parts of the world or the 90 local employees. Each one contributes in their own way to the life, work and success of our community.

At Camphill Blair Drummond our aim is to provide a mutually supportive and purposeful community life for people with complex learning disabilities. In doing so, we aim to support them to participate fully and equally in society. Our values are based on:

The Individual – being at the centre of all we do
Realising our Potential – enabling the individual to realise their full potential
Creativity – providing activities that allow the individual to use their skills and abilities, enabling them to experience new possibilities
Engagement & Involvement – participation in purposeful activities to enrich both the individual and the community
Community & Choice – where the individual is treated with respect and dignity at all times, has their rights to privacy respected and where they are supported to make choices as part of a shared community

These values and our approach are reflected in all aspects of our varied and vibrant community life, whether within the life of one of our six homes or within the wide range of workshops and day activities available to accommodate interests, skill, ability and need.
