SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION

Working towards the transformation of society is a big passion for us, which means making a practical difference in people’s lives. We work within the city of Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire to bring Social Transformation to those most in need through drop-ins, food-banks, debt centres, prison work, community chaplaincy and much more.

We have a big vision: to see Aberdeen & Aberdeenshire transformed, our communities made more inclusive, and for people who are marginalised, excluded or disadvantaged to have access to transformative, holistic care and support that sees them integrated, included, valued and thriving!

GIVING

We give out tonnes of food annually across the City and Shire, and would love to give more! Please remember some extra non-perishable food items and toiletries when you’re shopping, and bring them along to one of our donation points.

NEED HELP?

We regularly give out food parcels, toiletries, and hot meals to those in need. If you would like to receive any of these, please get in touch for more info.
