Believe. Transform. Achieve.

Based in Musselburgh, Edge Group Scotland delivers specialist transition programmes for autistic young adults across the Lothians, and those with other additional support needs (ASN). Our programmes are designed and delivered by autism experts, ensuring a deep understanding and personalised approach.

The supported day programmes, designed for autistic school leavers and young adults, and those with other additional support needs, integrate person-centred methodologies, evidence-based practices, and dedicated mentorship. This fosters independence and empowers our young adults to develop essential life and employability skills, confidently progressing towards their positive destinations.

We're a trusted leader in social care, consistently empowering young adults to transform their lives and celebrate every step of their journey to their chosen positive destination.
