GCP’S 2025 SOCIAL IMPACT

Read our 2025 Social Impact Report

Grassmarket Community Project (GCP) is an open, inclusive, and diverse community, enabling the most marginalised people in the city to flourish.

Today and every day, we continue to change the lives of the city’s most vulnerable citizens, reducing social isolation and improving quality of life by providing opportunity, experiences, skills and connection.

GCP’s 2025 Social Impact

This year has seen an unprecedented rise in demand for GCP’s services. Our 2025 Social Impact Report shows you the significant difference we enable our members to make in their lives, against an increasingly challenging backdrop.

It gives you an overview of ALL that we do, with great photos and stats to demonstrate our positive impact.

Read about the experiences and opportunities we offer, our Member and Volunteer stories and feedback, and updates from our fantastic Social Enterprises. GCP really does transform lives.

‘It has helped me feel less isolated and lonely
when I am able to attend. It has helped me realise
my confidence and self-esteem.’

‘I don’t know what I would do without this place. I
did not leave the house for months.’

‘You saved my life.’
