Our Purpose

To improve the health and wellbeing of our community. To combat social isolation. To build a resilient community.

An Tobar is a place of belonging where we can nurture our health and wellbeing, and heal and grow together as a community.

At An Tobar, we believe that every individual should be treated with respect and should feel included and have opportunities for personal development to help realise their full potential.

Working with plants and animals in an outdoor, natural environment is ideal for helping to achieve these aims. The results are very effective and often life-changing.

Our participants include older people, some of whom have dementia and their carers, young people and adults with learning disabilities and/or mental health difficulties.

‘Social enterprises are businesses that are changing the world for the better. Like traditional businesses they aim to make a profit but it’s what they do with their profits that sets them apart – reinvesting or donating them to create positive social change”  Social Enterprise UK.
