we know that ending homelessness is a marathon not a sprint and it will take long-term action to make lasting change for people experiencing homelessness in our city. at the breakfast bothy we rely on donations to keep our homeless community fed and cared for, and we couldn’t do it without the support of fantastic businesses like Innovative Partners.

in january, we were awarded generous funding from a wonderful team at St George’s School participating in the YPI project. if you’re wondering what that funding went towards... you’re looking at it!

a big thank you to paige, pippa, sophia, rachel, and sophie of st george’s school who did a fantastic job presenting about our charity at the ypi finals

for christmas this year, many of our guests will receive a package of essential items from our team and supporters at the breakfast bothy

this winter, we're providing some of our guests with cosy, waterproof jackets made in scotland by the wonderful team at the ootsider.

we have a wonderful relationship with the generous team at soul cycles on brougham place, who partner with us through our token scheme.

after months of planning, renovating, fundraising, and sorting through donations, seeing our second-hand shop up and running is a wonderful feeling and we’re so proud of how it has turned out.

a group of six employees from property development group, Square and Crescent, are taking up the gruelling challenge to walk the glenshee nine munros this august, with funds raised going to support the breakfast bothy.

we’re so happy to announce that innovative partners, an innovation funding and grants business based here in edinburgh, have chosen to support our wee charity!

on the coldest night in april this year, 40 of our incredible supporters slept the night outside without shelter to fundraise for our wee charity.
