DESCRIPTION
The TOR Christian Foundation is the legacy of the TOR Christian Nursing Home which was on Corstorphine Road, Murrayfield. The nursing home became financially unsustainable, so after an orderly closure of the care activities, we realised the assets of the charity and are now seeking use those assets to support activities aligned with the role of the nursing home.
We are a registered charity, regulated by Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator.
TOR Christian Foundation is a grant making organisation which is seeking to support churches and other Christian organisations across Edinburgh that share our vision for the pastoral care of older people including those who have faith and those who have none.

Our vision, which reflects of our history, is to:
- Promote and support physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing of older people, particularly those living in their own homes who are isolated due to physical or age-related frailty.
- Work as a champion for older people in the church, supporting older people in their physical and mental wellbeing as appropriate, enabling and assisting with access to wider community health support.
- Enable and promote cross-generational and inter-church connections as well as seeking to make connections in the wider community, looking to serve not only the older people of the church but also those with no church connections.
- Complement and run alongside rather than replicating or replacing ministry already being done by churches.
- Encourage churches to work together, building networks to improve care and learn from one another.
