At “Coleg Elidyr” you will find a home with open doors where everybody is welcome to enjoy a community life where human rights are a daily practice combined with deep love forming the base of all your work.
It is a place where patience, respect and understanding for each other builds up strong relationships that help to personally develop students, trainees and ourselves as guest volunteers as well as all social beings.
Every day is a challenge ending in a “you can do it” and “everything could be”. You will learn the importance of supporting the young people’s development, with them asking for your understanding of their individuality which allows us to comprehend the possibility of the changes and the development of their endless skills, confidence, autonomy and self-esteem.
Here, you will understand why everybody is important in this life, whether high or low skilled, and how being respected as an individual provides every human being in Coleg Elidyr with a happy, colourful and playful-working environment.
