Tomorrow is the International Day of Charity!

A day for charities to raise awareness for their causes and mark achievements. HcL is a registered Scottish charity (SC013906), and we would like to take this opportunity to thank our staff, volunteers, funders, and supporters for helping us achieve our mission to provide supported, accessible transport for people who have difficulty travelling independently in Edinburgh and the Lothians.

Thank you! πŸ’šπŸšŒ

Did you know August is International Happiness Happens Month!

This month, we celebrate all of the things that make us happy, big and small, whether it's a nice day out with friends and family or a wee cup of coffee. We hope our services make you happy and help you enjoy the things you love all year round!

Here are the things that make some of our staff happy:

Some of our Edinburgh Despatchers,
Kirsty loves spending time with her dogs
Amanda likes a good day shopping
and Chris enjoys good food, with peace and quiet!

Alexis and Sara, our Finance Officers, love spending time with their families.

Jonathan, our Fundraiser, enjoys cups of strong black coffee in the morning.

Elizabeth, our Service Development Manager, likes drawing, painting and visiting art galleries.

And Robert, our Senior Operations Manager, likes building Lego.
