Red2Green helps those 16+ with autism or learning disabilities to achieve their goals in training, education, work, friendship and fun
We offer innovative and personalised opportunities in a safe environment in our modern barn conversion in a peaceful countryside setting. We take every opportunity to get out and about, meet new people, experience different activities and generally play a part in the community.
We run the Red2Green Community Café and sensory garden from the site at Bottisham Village College, which provides our learners an opportunity to learn in a work based environment.
