Little Gate Farm

Little Gate is a registered charity born out of a vision to enrich the lives of people with learning disabilities and autism.

We do this through providing Supported Training, Supported Apprenticeship and Supported Employment opportunities for adults – with the aim of helping them find paid employment and a better future.

We support the parents of our trainees through our Parent Forum and run a fun-filled Little Gate Rangers youth scheme.

Only 6% of adults with learning disabilities are in paid employment.
This means 94% are in unpaid work, day care or stuck at home.

It doesn’t have to be this way.

At Little Gate we believe that everyone has the right to train for, find and thrive in paid employment.
We work with families and businesses across East Sussex and Kent to make this vision a reality.

Help us and you’re helping to change lives.

The home of our charity is at Little Gate Farm; 46 acres of pasture and ancient woodland in the High Weald Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Owned since the 1960s by the Cordell family, they have now turned their attention from sheep farming to the Little Gate charity. However, plenty of farm animals, as well as the local wildlife, still call Little Gate their home.

We also have a Hastings office from which we manage our Supported Employment programme.
