The Mount Camphill offers the opportuniy for trainee co-workers from all over the world to spend a year working alongside the students, tutors and senior co-workers.

As a trainee co-worker you will involve yourself with our young adults with special educational needs, aged 16 -25 years, on all levels, e.g. getting them up, helping them at bed time and during the day either help and support teaching in one of the houses, a workshop or on the land.

At the weekends, your support and initiative will be needed in taking students out and providing activities for and with them.

The Mount provides a full timetable of activities and responsibilities during term time. This work makes considerable demands upon the time and energy of all co-workers, but this is compensated by the richness and value of experience to be gained while living in a community, which strives to serve social, economic and spiritual ideals.

We welcome any artistic gifts, especially musical, and would like to hear if you play an instrument! There will be plenty of opportunities to play, e.g. at festivals.
