Cohousing
Welcome to The Mount Camphill Cohousing Community.
Cohousing provides an innovative model of adult supported living within a Camphill Community setting. Our houses are located on and off campus. Cohousing provides a sense of community, social inclusion and support, a culture of sustainable development, higher density living, efficient use of land and resources, reduction in social isolation and physical and emotional security. We support active independence for life, inclusion in all areas of decision-making and value finding people who want to share their lives with others. We offer social care support on request. We are currently at full capacity and admissions to Cohousing is suspended until further notice.
