The Welcoming Association
The Welcoming Association Edinburgh (www.thewelcoming.org) is the only organisation in Edinburgh that specifically supports New Scots (asylum seekers, refugees and migrant people). The organisation has helped New Scots since 2000 by ensuring they feel at home in their new communities.
The Welcoming builds community by connecting locals and New Scots through social and cultural exchange and collaborating with others to share knowledge and influence positive change. We run a high-quality and responsive ESOL programme, employability, befriending, and energy advice, and offer many cultural activities, and have a unique track record of working with New Scots.
