Story

Thanks for visiting my page, I am raising money for this fantastic charity in memory of my Dad who sadly passed away in February.  

The first event I am holding is a Dine with Dean, for every £20 donation I will place each person into a prize draw and the winner will receive a three course meal cooked by me at their home*, with wine and one cocktail per person. 

*I promise we will do the dishes too! 

I have lots more planned and the updates will come but for now, thank you for any donations made, and thank you for taking the time to read my page it means a lot. 


Canongate Youth has been supporting young people in Edinburgh for the last 45 years. As with any charity, we are always in need of the support of people local to us to ensure we can continue to be there for our children and young people. We provide a safe and welcoming space where children and young people can come to be themselves, feel included and have fun. We support young people from a variety of backgrounds with varying needs - our aim is to ensure young people are supported with their mental and physical wellbeing, as well as having a social space to make friends and be accepted amongst their peers.Being in operation for 45 years has allowed us to be part of generations of families and we hope to be able to continue that for another 45 years.
