02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
One Dalkeith was established to provide a focus for community engagement and development by providing recreational facilities and activities, by providing facilities for local start-ups to operate and to provide an outlet for local makers to display and sell their products. We also engage in activities to protect and preserve our environment and to foster and encourage arts and crafts in the community, while preserving our heritage and culture. In the past year we have done this by organising craft workshops (such as sewing club, cake decorating, woodworking and a Supper Club and various Community Connection events). We are active members of the Midlothian Climate Action group and hosts for Dalkeith Mens Shed. We run regular 'Cinema Nights' and also historical walking tours of Dalkeith.
