02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
The Salisbury Centre was set up to provide a place for community and individual development from a value base, rooted in spirituality, psychology and creativity, unaffiliated to any one specific paradigm or practice. The Centre is a hub for a wide range of practitioners, who use the rooms and facilities for their practices and the facilitation of practices. The Centre also strongly engages with different approaches to community building, usually engaging volunteers as well as staff and these vary from year to year, in part depending on what specific kind of grant funding have been received. The Centre has a beautiful garden, library and seed library, all which are mostly run by volunteers and partly supported through external funding, currently related to community, climate and seed sovereignty.
