About JPC Community Farm
Supporting You & Yours
Our charitable aims are to provide relief for people with complex needs by reason of health and disability.
JPC Community Farm is a registered charity (No. 1172634), established on 19th April 2017 by former Police Officer Paul Connaughton and his wife Julie. As parents of James Paul Connaughton, after whom our charity is named, they identified considerable local need for improved provision for people with disabilities and other complex needs. Together they have considerable lived experience of the needs and challenges facing people with disabilities, including those with learning and physical disabilities as well as other complex needs. This helps ensure all support we deliver meets the specific needs of young people with special needs.
