Welcome to Space @ The Broomhouse Hub
The last few years have been difficult for everyone, with COVID-19 and the ongoing cost-of-living crisis hitting deprived communities especially hard.
At Space we care.
For over 30 years we have worked hard to build a better future for the people of Broomhouse, Parkhead and Sighthill as well as the wider South West Edinburgh area.
However, we still have much to do. Find out here about our work to support the people of all ages and backgrounds who live in our community, the impact we make, and why we won’t give up on those who need us most.
Our Services
Below are some of the key projects and services we deliver here at Space @ The Broomhouse Hub as part of our commitment to supporting people from all walks of life.
