St James
10911
St James is running an auction to raise funds for the Building Links campaign, which seeks to transform St James into an inclusive community hub for Leith. Our focus in building links with our local community is to provide welcome and radical acceptance to all, celebrate the arts as a way of expressing spirituality and bringing healing and joy, provide space for quiet contemplation, build connection between diverse groups, and challenge injustice.
In order to realise this vision and be an active part of the Leith community, St James requires capital improvements to its building. Raising funds will allow us to maintain and grow the use of our building, offering a much improved space to others and extending our support to the groups least able to pay. You can learn more about the campaign here: https://www.givewheel.com/fundraising/10253/st-james-leith-building-links/
