02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Ou charity was founded to bring the former Leith St. Andrew’s parish church into community ownership and management, providing affordable and accessible space to local charities, community groups and social enterprises. In turn, these organisations will provide Leith with a wide range of activities, services and events to support the physical, emotional and mental wellbeing of our community. We are dedicated to protecting a cherished historic landmark in the heart of Leith, and giving the building new life. But our vision extends beyond preserving a building. we will build on strong existing community foundations, envisioning a multi-purpose wellbeing, activity, and performance space. We will provide a place for local residents to come together, engage in beneficial activities, and celebrate cultures.
