Aspens

Set in the gentle rolling fields of the beautiful Kent countryside, Aspens is based in Pembury, just outside the centre of Tunbridge Wells. Aspens Charities mission is to provide high quality care and support to individuals on the autism spectrum and with learning disabilities; meeting their needs and aspirations and empowering them to learn and grow through an integrated network of services across the South-East.

The charity’s Pembury site on Cornford Lane, which is partially open to the public, has a café, animals, an outdoor gym, play area and a beautiful woodland walk. Aspens welcomes visitors and families to this little corner of unspoilt High Weald countryside, an area of outstanding natural beauty. Come and say hello to our animals which include pigs, donkeys, guinea pigs and goats; or just relax with a coffee and a slice of cake while the kids enjoy the children’s woodland play area. The Charity ask all visitors to be mindful that their site is at the heart of the living area of many of the people they support, some of whom work in and use the cafe and help care for the animals. It is also a working site used by Aspens' care, maintenance and office staff. Access is free, but donations to the charity are very welcome, with collection pots situated on the site, or online at www.aspens.org.uk
