Edinburgh Futures Resource Hub Activities

All our activities are drop-in so just come along as often or as little as you like!!

Cooking & Breakfast Club: Relaxed sessions suitable for anyone.

Healthy Eating: Come and learn to cook food that is both tasty and healthy!

Ready Steady Cook:  Even more important than being able to follow a recipe is knowing how to make yourself a meal using those random three things you have left in your fridge and cupboard.  It’s cheaper and means you don’t have to go to the shop.  We provide a random selection of ingredients and come up with a dish together.

Baking: Come along and follow an easy recipe to make delicious baked goods, including cakes, pastries and more!

Computer Drop In & IT Skills: You can use this time for whatever you like, anything from learning how to turn a computer on and off, to social media and job applications.  You can drop in to use the computers at the Hub most times when we’re open, but at the Computer Drop In there will always be someone around to give you a hand.

Need a hand with CV’s or job applications? Come along to the computer drop in!

Music Group: The music group is really relaxed – you can learn some basic guitar chords, or come for a sing, or just to listen.  In the arts and crafts group we make simple crafts for you to take away and give as gifts or decorate your home.
