Education & Opportunities

At Orchard Therapeutic Care, we believe independence is about more than having your own space – it’s about having the confidence, skills and opportunities to shape your future.

That’s why education, training and real-world experience are built into the support we offer.

Orchard Therapeutic Farm

Through our partnership with Orchard Therapeutic Farm, you’ll have the chance to:

  • Gain qualifications and build your CV

  • Try out practical activities in a safe, supportive environment

  • Get hands-on work experience in areas like farming, hospitality, catering, animal care, office work and more

  • Build confidence by learning outdoors in our beautiful farm and orchard setting

  • Have opportunities to build social skills and confidence

  • Take trips both in this country and abroad 

  • Learn your own way, at your own pace


Preparing for Independence

Education here isn’t just about classrooms – it’s about real life. We’ll support you to:

  • Learn how to manage money and bills

  • Cook healthy meals

  • Keep on top of your home

  • Plan for jobs, training and further study

Looking Ahead

Our aim is to help you feel ready for what comes next – whether that’s college, work, volunteering or simply living more independently.

With us, education and opportunity aren’t add-ons – they’re part of your everyday journey. We offer an integrated 12 week outreach programme to support you on the next part of your journey!
