The Eric Liddell Centre

Welcome to the Eric Liddell Centre

The Eric Liddell Centre is a registered What's on groupcharity dedicated to inspiring, empowering and supporting people of all ages, cultures and abilities as an expression of compassionate Christian values. The Centre acts as a living memorial to the Olympic athlete Eric Liddell and has been serving the Edinburgh community since 1980. You can read more about our vision, values and history on our about us page.

We operate a range of services of our own and provide facilities for other community groups and charities.

Our own charitable projects include a specialised dementia day care unit, and a project supporting carers in Edinburgh through educational & health based courses and drop-in support.

These projects are complemented by the 3Ms Youth Partnership and other charitable projects based at the centre. With demand increasing and available space at a premium in this geographically central facility, there is no doubting the importance of The Centre to a growing number of groups.
