Day Provision
We are a land-based day provision for adults with additional needs, which can include Learning Disability, Autism, Dementia (memory loss), recovery from Brian Injury and more. We do this by the following:
Community Integration
ARK promotes social cohesion within our all inclusive community onsite, as well as the wider community of our local villages, which includes our fortnightly lunch club in Merriott Village hall, and various groups and clubs that visit ARK for tours, activities and refreshments.
Land-Based Activities
ARK provides opportunities to learn and explore the boundaries of what everyone can achieve; to grow in confidence and self-esteem through supported, recognised and tangible outcomes. Developing practical, transferable, personal, work place and life skills whilst working within the community, as part of a team. Providing accessible and inclusive activities and facilities that deliver positive personal and social development, through creative experiences and meaningful work both at ARK and within the community.
Activities can include:
- Animal husbandry
- Horticulture (vegetable/flower production)
- Rural crafts and skills
- Up-cycling and restoration projects
- Arts and crafts workshops
- Marketing and Social Media
- Cooking
