Here at Sunnyside every individual is unique and their personal choices form the basis of our working approach.
We are currently in the process of developing individual training programmes for every person that uses our service. That way we can point them in the right direction of training and employment.
Choice and Control
Choice and control under pins all activities within the trust. All of are service users play an important role in forming the basis of SRT and are encouraged to get involved in planning everything we do as well as taking part. Find out more...

Horticulture
One of the main and most popular activities we offer is training and experience in gardening and horticulture. We cover all sorts of outdoor work, from planting and maintaining a wide variety of produce, to gathering willow coppice. It's not just a fantastic way for our service users to gain valuable skills but it has also proved to be an ideal, relaxing environment for them to work and communicate in. Find out more...
Gardening Contracts
We also offer services to local councils and businesses working both private and public contracts, involving gardening maintenance and landscaping where our clients get valuable experience and training outside of the trust in local areas.

Ive always loved making jewellery; now thanks to SRT I am selling my beads on the weekly market stall and in the farm shop. It has helped me understand the means of profit and has let me make enough money to keep me buying materials.
