What is L'Arche

At L’Arche Edinburgh we celebrate people with learning disabilities and build circles of support around them. We go beyond basic needs to attend to people’s emotional and spiritual lives.
Why volunteer

We are always interested in welcoming people who want to participate in the life of the community.

What makes L’Arche different is the attention we pay to building relationships and creating a sense of belonging within our Communities.
Independent Living

Four of our core members live in their own flats in Leith, with a team of assistants providing visiting and sleepover support to meet each person’s individual needs.
