Join us on Friday 5th December 2025 at the beautiful St Paul’s & St George’s Church, Edinburgh, where voices will join together in song and story for a magical evening of festive music and celebration in support of CrossReach.

This event is not only the perfect way to begin the festive season, but also a night to celebrate the inspiring work of CrossReach and the difference we make in communities across Scotland. As a fundraising event, all ticket sales will go directly towards supporting CrossReach’s vital services. On the night, you can also take part in a raffle, browse the incredible talents of our Heart for Art sale, and pick up unique gifts and trading goods — all helping to raise even more for our services.

There’s nothing quite like the smell (and taste!) of freshly made apple cider! Our residents rolled up their sleeves, pressed some crisp apples, and created their very own batches of cider this today. 🍏
The results? Pure autumn perfection — warm, cozy, and absolutely delicious! 🍂🍁

Our residents had a fantastic time getting creative— painting pumpkins with beautiful designs and sharing lots of lovely chats along the way.
There was so much concentration and attention to detail as everyone brought their artistic ideas to life — and the results were amazing!
So many wonderful pieces of art 🎃

Last week one of our residents enjoyed a lovely trip out — picking some beautiful fresh flowers and stopping for a relaxing coffee along the way ☕💐
When they returned, everyone joined in to help arrange the flowers into vases for our lounges. Now the whole home is filled with colour, fragrance, and smiles! 💐

This week we rolled up our sleeves and got stuck into some serious baking — delicious homemade biscuits and classic shortbread! The smell alone had everyone smiling… but as good as it was to make them, eating them was even better! 👩‍🍳🍪

There’s nothing quite like good conversation and busy hands! 🧶
This week, our lovely residents spent a cosy afternoon knitting and having a natter over cups of tea. From scarves in progress to stories shared, it was a heartwarming reminder of the joy in simple moments
Whether they’re seasoned knitters or just along for the chat, everyone enjoyed themselves

🎯🎶 Fun and Fitness at The Elms ! 🎶🎯

Our residents had an action-packed day filled with laughter and movement! 💃🕺

First up was Target Practice, where steady hands and sharp eyes made for some fantastic shots — and plenty of cheering from the sidelines!

Then it was time to shake things up with Pom Pom Dancing to Music — , big smiles, and some seriously impressive rhythm! 🎵
