Welcome to Foxes Academy

Foxes Academy is situated on the seafront in Minehead, Somerset. It is an independent limited company, which was started in 1996 as a training hotel. The company has two directors. We hope that our website will encourage prospective learners to contact us.

We welcome Social Workers, Colleges, Schools or parents to telephone us for an appointment to view our various establishments. This arrangement allows visitors to see the hotel and training in operation and to talk to some of our existing learners.

We cater for learners with learning difficulties and/or disabilities from all ethnic backgrounds. We operate an Equal Opportunities policy. For details of our aims and progress, please contact Sharon Bowden. For any particular access or dietary requirements when visiting us please contact our Enabling Officer, Beverley King. Our brochure is also available in other formats, including large print, audio cassette, Widget, CD, Braille or in any other language, on request.
