People with a range of different abilities and disabilities come to Garvald Edinburgh to develop their skills in a warm, supportive, creative environment.
The opportunities we provide can make a major impact in helping people to gain confidence. We tailor the support and activity to the individual and encourage independence.
Garvald Edinburgh is a Scottish Charity offering creative opportunities and support for people with learning disabilities. We are inspired by the ideas of the educator and philosopher, Rudolf Steiner and have been operating in Edinburgh since 1969.
We provide creative working environments focusing mainly around craft, catering and artistic skills. Currently we provide opportunities and support for over 200 people. In addition we support around 40 people in their own homes and flats that are made available through links with housing associations.
We achieve very good gradings from the Care Inspectorate.
Garvald Edinburgh is very much part of the wider community and we continue to build relationships locally and internationally.
