We are looking for people to join us for an initial minimum commitment of one year with the opportunity to renew. (Many of our team come for one year, and then choose to stay for 2, 3, 5, 10 or even 30 more!)

We were founded over 40 years ago from a liberal Christian theology. Today our community is a diverse and inclusive team of all faiths and none, a huge range of nationalities, genders and sexualities. As one of our community members with a learning disability Richard always says: “At L’Arche there is always room at the table.”
