This winter there continues to be a great range of places across Edinburgh where you will always receive a warm welcome.

Come along and meet up with your friends, learn something new or just have some time to chill out and have a cuppa. Enjoy our movie matinees in our libraries, visit a local community project for dance, food pantries or yoga, or take the kids along to one of our community centres for some arts and crafts.
