Oaklands Park

Oaklands Park is a busy rural community based on a 150 acre estate on the edge of the Forest of Dean overlooking the River Severn in the South-West of the UK.

The Oaklands Park Community aspires to create a vibrant living environment, in which vulnerable adults can live, learn and work together with others of all ages and of all walks of life. These social relationships are based on mutual care and respect, and evolve in a healthy rural environment. The community is based on the understanding of the spiritual uniqueness of each human being, regardless of disability or nationality, religious or racial background, and on the deep concern for and commitment to the well-being of our natural environment and the land.

Camphill Communities were founded by Dr. Karl König in 1940 inspired by the work of Rudolf Steiner (Anthroposophy).
