We support people in Edinburgh and Lothian who have a physical disability. We’ve done so for over 100 years: promoting equality, choice and participation through our activities, befriending service and grants.
Impact
When Joan found herself more isolated during the coronavirus pandemic, she found company in Ecas’ new Distance Befriending Service.
“I can still enjoy my art class whilst staying safe and not having to travel outdoors.”
“Once we got chatting again, we had periods of good laughter amongst the uncertainty.”
