An Edinburgh-based charity dedicated to assisting older people and the disabled to live in their own homes and communities for as long as possible has celebrated its 30th birthday.
Care and Repair Edinburgh’s milestone anniversary was commemorated by the signing of a pledge to support the charity’s principles by Alex Neil, Cabinet Secretary for Social Justice, Communities and Pensioners’ Rights and local Capital MSP Gordon McDonald.
From arranging a home-from-hospital adaptation by a trusted tradesman to offering a helping hand and a listening ear to often lonely older people, Care and Repair Edinburgh’s dedicated, hardworking and experienced team of staff and volunteers provides a one-stop-shop to provide assistance to older and disabled people.

The real stars here are the staff that make this possible, like the technical officer Gary who has been with the organisation for most of its 30 years. Whilst this is a fabulous good news story, it’s a shame to see it being reported showcasing politicians who have never been through the front door.
