SUPPORT WITH PEOPLE RECOVERING FROM HOMELESSNESS

Edinburgh Cyrenians provides a flexible range of learning opportunities for people who are rebuilding their lives after homelessness. These include recreational activities, training, volunteering, educational and employment opportunities. We also provide information, guidance and support to encourage service users to identify their interests and needs with a view to them being able to move on and access educational opportunities throughout Edinburgh. Most referrals come from individuals accessing Cyrenians accommodation although external referrals are accepted. Edinburgh Cyrenians, Norton Park, 57 Albion Road, Edinburgh EH7 5QY.
