Welcome

We are known as Garvald Edinburgh. We provide day, accommodation and support services for adults with disabilities. We are inspired by the work of Rudolf Steiner.

In our work we recognise and value the uniqueness of each person. We seek to create a quality of environment in which activities and social relationships will be enabled. We want to allow people to realise their potential.
