About Duncan Place Community Hub
Duncan Place Community Hub is a registered charity operating as a social enterprise. After being under threat of demolition, the building was saved by the local community, a charity was established, and funds were raised for a full refurbishment. Now a thriving and busy community centre in Leith, the hub has a growing programme of groups, classes and events. This brings folks together to share and learn, increase well-being, and reduce social isolation. Through providing secure and affordable long-term tenancies, the hub is also home to several other charities. Income from the long term leased space and from low cost activity fees means that the charity is financially healthy and has decent reserves. This innovative model means that the charity is able to use funds raised to respond to the communities needs without the need to rely on short term funding.
