The Open Door Edinburgh

The Open Door Edinburgh The Open Door in Morningside supports older people, people with mental health issues and other vulnerable people in our community.

“I have a dream …to turn loneliness into fellowship, isolation into recognition …and bridge the gap between church and community”. (Peggy Hunter – founder of the Open Door 1982)

And so began this ecumenical venture that has been a presence in the heart of Morningside, Edinburgh for over 32 years. The Open Door continue to be supported by all our local churches, however since we promote inclusivity, our door truly is open to anyone. Over the years, as services have grown so have the number of staff and volunteers needed to provide them. Currently we have 6 staff and are supported by over 70 volunteers.
