The Langdale Trust

SPENCER'S RETREAT IS A 6 ACRE CARE FARM BASED IN BERKSWELL NEAR COVENTRY, SOLIHULL AND KENILWORTH FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS WITH DISABILITIES, SPECIAL NEEDS THEIR FAMILIES AND THOSE AFFECTED BY POVERTY OR SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC INEQUALITIES FOR THE PURPOSE OF 'RETREAT, RESPITE AND RECUPERATION', THUS IMPROVING MENTAL WELLBEING FOR ALL. The retreat is available to visitors to book a session rather than it being open to the public meaning that it never gets busy and overwhelming. Interaction with animals is incredibly therapeutic and beneficial as it can lower anxiety, stress and depression. Spencer's Retreat Farm has regular organised events where numbers are kept low in order to make them accessible for children who struggle with social anxiety or become overwhelmed in a busy environment. The event and activity days are flexible, you can book onto them but there is never any pressure to join in- you can just come and enjoy the environment, feed the animals or have a cup of tea/ piece of cake! Check out their social media pages or events page to see what's coming up and to book onto an event. We are also open to school groups, care homes and community groups too!
