We need your help!

THE GCP TEAM ARE TAKING ON THE 5K INFLATABLE CHALLENGE!

We’re swapping our usual work shoes for inflatable obstacles and taking on the 5K as a team! We’re bouncing, climbing, sliding and probably screaming our way through the course to raise funds for the Grassmarket Community Project and the people who make our community so special. The money we raise will help us continue providing the activities, support, meals, trips, volunteering opportunities and experiences that bring people together and help our members feel connected.

Meet the team!

Meet Team tumble (Pictured from the left Meg, Catherine, Usman, Hazel, Rob and Jon) who are ready to bounce, run, climb and probably have a few spectacular falls along the way!

We’re taking on the 5K Inflatable Challenge together for a worthy cause and we’re hoping to keep those smiles beaming all the way to the finish line!

Help us keep smiling and support Team GCP.

WHY WE’RE BOUNCING

Every day, our team works alongside our members to create a place where people can connect, try new things, build confidence and feel part of a community. From sharing a meal and joining an activity, to going on a trip, learning new skills, volunteering or simply having somewhere to belong, the little things can make a big difference.

We’re taking on the 5K Inflatable Challenge to help raise vital funds that support this work and help us keep creating opportunities for our community.

So, while we’ll be bouncing, sliding and probably falling over quite a lot, there’s a bigger reason behind it, we’re doing it for our community.

Transform lives

“if I didn’t have here I would have absolutely nothing”  GCP Member

At GCP, we believe in a world where people can reach their full potential, feel positive about themselves, valued and connected to others and the wider community. Your fundraising helps us continue to provide support, opportunities and nourishment, to help save the lives of people who are suffering many complex challenges, including homelessness, poverty, mental health issues, social isolation and physical abuse.

A word from Helene van der Ploeg, our CEO

‘The continued rising cost of living is having a huge impact on the most vulnerable people in Edinburgh. We have never seen such a demand for our services, and it will only get worse as we come into the winter months. Your fundraising is vital, enabling us to continue to support those who are suffering. The money you give really does save lives and makes a lasting difference to so many – THANK YOU!’
