We are a registered charity that offers support to vulnerable people in Edinburgh and Perth.

Rowan Alba works with those whose lives are unstable, often but not exclusively due to domestic abuse, debt, drug or alcohol dependency or mental health issues.  We recognise that a combination of these factors lead to homelessness, which is more complex than the lack of a roof over your head.  We provide services to reduce the chances of people becoming homeless, or where this has happened, and people have been damaged by the long term consequences of this, to provide them with the ongoing care and support they need.

Underlying everything we do are our core values of:-

• ACCEPTING people as they are
• SUPPORTING those ready to move to a more independent life
• INCLUDING people in society by the provision of ongoing care for those who are not ready, or whose life experiences have left them unable to live independent of support.
