We offer support in the way that works best for people.
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 for people with a physical disability:
- The chance to get out and take part in activities which improve confidence, wellbeing and quality of life (for people over 18)
- Friendship and companionship (befriending) (for people over 18)
- Grants (not loans) to help people (of any age) buy goods and services which they can’t get from public funding
Ecas is a charity. We rely on income from investments, donations and grants.
