Abberton Rural Training (ART)
ART is an educational charity providing practical and skills training alongside therapeutic support and mentoring to the residents of Essex and surrounding areas. The courses have a particular focus on rural skills, including countryside and environment, horticulture, woodlands and land management. The courses provide life skills and employability skills alongside accredited learning, to help our participants access jobs, become self-employed, move into further education and training, or become involved in the local community by volunteering.
Our courses are safe and welcoming with sites right across Essex and South Suffolk . However, if you cannot come in yourself due to isolation or other factors online courses are available. Click on the following link for further information: https://abbertonruraltraining.org/course-locations/
