Support for older people

About LifeCare Edinburgh

LifeCare is a registered charity with a proud 80-year history of providing uplifting, positive and practical support for older people and we’ve never been needed more. Our vision is of a society where no older person is left alone or isolated. We believe that older people should be supported to thrive in their own homes and be active members of their community.

Our services are delivered to older people age 50+ who need our care within the home, out and about in the community and from our registered day clubs. This includes people living with dementia, frail older people, those living with mobility problems, with poor mental health, people experiencing isolation and loneliness, and dedicated unpaid carers.

Our bright and spacious community hub is home to our Community Cafe, CaféLife, two of our day clubs and a diverse range of activities, classes and events. We also have a number of fully accessible rooms suitable for all sorts of events available to hire. By using the centre and our café you are supporting our charity’s work with older people across Edinburgh.
