Jewish Care Scotland

Jewish Care Scotland Scotland’s leading Jewish welfare charity since 1858. We have a small team of dedicated and hardworking staff, as well over 80 caring and committed volunteers.

Jewish Care Scotland is the only charity dedicated to meeting the welfare needs of Scotland’s Jewish community. We offer a wide range of professional social work and social care services and work together with the charity’s volunteers, dedicated to tailoring our services to the needs of each individual. We are a non-profit organisation and rely on the generosity of individual donors to make up the

shortfall in our funding. Every penny donated is appreciated. We operate out of the the Walton Community Care Centre which was custom built and opened in 1999. It is the focal point for the delivery of all our services. The Centre is located in the heart of Jewish community and allows us to offer social work support, run a day centre and a number of special clubs where people can gather socially, participate in therapeutic programmes, eat a meal together, be entertained and take part in a whole range of activities including keep fit, bridge, artwork, discussions and music appreciation.

A massive thank you to our incredible volunteer, Leonard Wilson!

Building these panels almost every month takes immense dedication, and your hard work makes vital events like our recent "Women with a Voice" gathering at Jewish Care Scotland possible.

We are still feeling inspired by this event, where local women gathered for an honest discussion on Community empowerment and what it truly means to be heard. The afternoon reminded us that advocacy is not about shouting the loudest, but simply believing your thoughts and needs genuinely matter. Thank you to our panellists for sharing their stories, and to everyone who attended.

Together, we continue to keep our wonderful Community connected! 🎙️💜
