Greetings! From The Stables - there was no room at the Inn. The Sheep Heid Inn is just across the road from us, which is almost too handy! Duddingston Village, nestling in the shadow of Arthur's Seat and with the loch on its doorstep, is lovely. We've been exploring and found Dr Neil's Garden, and it's smashing, the peace of the country in the city. So far, Village life suits us very well, indeed.

We've Moved

We've finished our move now. Most of the unpacking has been done and the new place is starting to look like a proper office and reminiscence centre instead of rooms full of boxes. Again lots of hard work by staff and volunteers has gone into getting everything organised and working again. We've already had a few visitors and look forward to greeting many more over the coming months. After a few teething troubles we now have our web acceess and email working again so we're now back in touch with the rest of the world!

On the Move


Today we made a start on our move to our new premises in Duddingston. A lot of hard work has gone on by staff and volunteers getting all our office and Reminiscence Centre packed up and ready to go. The first van loads were moved to the new place, mostly in the pouring rain, today.
The old office is looking pretty empty now but we are still operating from there for a few more days.

Early next week we will start the process of getting installed and unpacking before moving the rest of our office later on.
