The Fathom Trust

We provide safe, calm and creative environments for people to develop new skills, relationships and perspectives.

The Fathom Trust creates opportunities for individuals to learn to live deeply, in harmony with ourselves, each other and our natural habitat.

Neurobiological studies demonstrate the link between bodily awareness and emotion regulation. Both traditional craft-making and conservation require bodily engagement and mental focus and can be transformative for those suffering mental illness.

By creating environments in which people can learn to focus on practical tasks that are mentally relaxing, we can teach people how to re-evaluate or relationship with the natural world and to discover our place in it.
