What you need to know


Thanks to public support and votes through ITVs People's Project event Magdalen is pleased to offer a series of 1 night sleepovers for families with an autistic teenager.  There are several dates to choose from but only 1 event can be booked by each family.  

This particular event is supported by The Big Lottery Fund and ITV's People Project Funding. 


Magdalen is a working organic farm set in the glorious countryside of Dorset & Somerset.  At the heart of our farm is an education centre from which we offer activities with accommodation and delicious meals.  Our aim is to encourage as many people as possible from all walks of life to enjoy the great outdoors.

Our Family break is a great opportunity for mums, dads, brothers and sisters or indeed any family member to come along together and enjoy a fun time.  This specific event is aimed at families who have an autistic teenager to enjoy time together and bring parents together to share experiences.    Accommodation will be provided for the overnight stay in our converted farm buildings with 1 room designated per family with shared bathroom facilities.  We will offer yummy food throughout the stay using as much produce from our own farm as possible - just let us know if you have any specific dietary requirements as we will be only to happy to accommodate your requirements.

On-site we have 2 all-terrain wheelchairs to help those less able to get around the farm along with a dedicated "Changing place" (please bring your own hoist if required).

We will tailor the event to suit the needs of the individuals in the group so it is important you let us know in advance of any requirements you and your family may have.
