History
On these pages you can read about how the Griffin Community Trust evolved from small beginnings into the successful charity that it now is. On the left you can select to read a leaflet published in 1998 that charts the progression of the Griffin ideal from its inception in the minds of the founders of the Griffin Community Trust into the bricks and mortar of Griffin House.

2007 saw the 10th anniversary of the building of Griffin house, and 2008 is the 20th anniversary of the Griffin Community Trust. To mark these milestones and bring the history up to date, former Griffin resident Catherine Eades has written an account carrying on where the first history left off in 1998. It recounts major changes in personnel, buildings, and activities. It includes testimonials from former students, which you can read in full in the 'People' section.
