Work is an important value in human life and an integral aspect of the Carmelite life. As with every family there are all kinds of ways in which we sisters care for each other and for our home. We do as much as possible to run the house ourselves as a group of responsible women living in community.We also have a walled vegetable garden where we grow some of our own fruit and vegetables.

As well as the general upkeep of the house, we make our living through the production and distribution altar breads which are then sent to different churches and communities all over the UK, and further afield. These are used for the celebration of the Eucharist. Within the community each sister is involved in this work as far as she is able.
