Bespoke woodwork from GCP’s award-winning wood workshop
Commission bespoke wood furniture, hand-crafted from recycled and responsibly-sourced wood. Our expert team transforms unwanted church pews and other recycled wood for your home, office, school or outdoor space.
From desks, tables, counters, cabinets and chairs, to signage and notice boards, to school furniture, outdoor benches, church fonts, lecterns and café interiors. Each item is designed and built to the customer’s exact specification and we can offer a variety of different types of wood, many of which are no longer commercially available.
We’ve been doing this for many years and we’re good at what we do.
We have kitted out all sorts of spaces with our beautiful wood including children’s nurseries, office and retail spaces, places of worship and of course people’s homes and gardens. Regular clients include the City of Edinburgh Council to The Church of Scotland.

Supporting employability
GCP’s Wood Workshop, formed in 2006, is one of the social enterprises in Grassmarket Community Project.
Every sale helps us continue our good work. We believe every individual can make a worthwhile contribution to our community and wider society.
The woodwork team work with woodwork experts to learn valuable woodworking skills and gain practical work experience.
Through placements and apprenticeships, vulnerable individuals increase their confidence and self-esteem, develop good work ethics, improve their social skills, reliability and resilience, and ultimately work towards further opportunities including formal qualifications and employment.
