Camphill Community Mourne Grange - Home
Description
Camphill Community Mourne Grange, was established in 1971, as the first adult community in Northern Ireland. It is now the home for more than 140 people, including adults with special needs who live and work together with co-workers and their families.
Lying between the sea and the Mourne Mountains in peaceful rural surroundings, Mourne Grange is a working village in which everyone participates and is interested and concerned in the life of the place. Life in the various houses is that of a family, since co-workers and their children, young and old people alike live together without the restrictions of shifts and rotas or payment for work or time given.
Mourne Grange is based on the principle of mutual care: there is an interdependence among all members of the community. Through living and working together, the distinctions between the various members of the community are overcome by an appreciation that we are all dependent on each other, that each person has their contribution to make to the whole community. A busy working life, whether in house, workshop, or on the land, calls on everyone according to individual capabilities.
