Open Door Meals
All welcome

Our weekly Open Door Meals service supports anyone who is experiencing homelessness, vulnerably housed or suffering from poverty or social exclusion.

Every Wednesday from 5-6:30pm at the Grassmarket Centre, a two-course, freshly-prepared meal is served by our friendly team of GCP volunteers and staff.

In 2025, we served 2593 meals, an average of 50 people per week.

Other services provided alongside can include:

Volunteer hairdressers from local salons and our team help individuals feel cared for and dignified with free haircuts.

The Open Door Meal is followed by a free weekly film from our award-winning Community Cinema >>
