Rapid Re-accommodation Welcome Centre

The Welcome Centre provides emergency accommodation with support to anyone who has no alternative accommodation and needs somewhere safe to stay.

You will be supported from the moment you walk through the doors of the Welcome Centre with around-the-clock care, access to your own room with en-suite facilities, and three meals a day. There is no charge to access this service and only very basic information is asked from individuals who need a place to stay.

There are opportunities to engage with City of Edinburgh Council, NHS staff, harm reduction and many more professional agencies tailored to support you and help you rapidly move on to the right accommodation for you.
