We're pleased to be launching a new service in the Greyfriars Charteris Centre - The Village Square. This is essentially a community space for access by all. It is going in the former Kirk o'Field Sanctuary and will have tables/chairs plus a soft seating area as well. Whether people need to escape, rest, study, work, chat, meet, give, receive, learn or whatever – The Village Square is here. Commencing on 5 March, it will be open Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 10am to 3pm.

As part of our ongoing celebration of all things Community, and because it's Christmas time, we're holding a very special Community Carol Concert. It will take place on Wednesday 7 December at 7pm, and will feature: Edinburgh City Salvation Army Band Grassmarket Community Project Choir Edinburgh Society of Recorder Players Life Church Gospel Choir So if you can, please come and celebrate Christmas with us, listen to some festive music, and join in some community carol singin
