SERVICE DETAILS
Welcome to Peer Support and Learning! We facilitate peer support groups and information sessions to assist disabled people, older people, those with long-term health conditions, and their carers in Edinburgh and the Lothians. The groups strengthen knowledge, skills and confidence in all aspects of Self-Directed Support (SDS) and available social care options.
Our group and information sessions empower and support people, encouraging connection and community through shared experiences, which help reduce isolation. They offer a safe space to share thoughts and experiences of SDS and ask questions.
The sessions are welcoming, relaxed and informal. Bringing people together to discuss the aspects of SDS that matter to them.
