More Than Just A Roof
Training
Working in homelessness prevention and supporting people to realise their full potential, communication is key. Rowan Alba offers a variety of coaching qualifications and training.
Services
We provide a range of services across Scotland, which reduce the chances of people becoming homeless or, where this has happened, provide people with the support they need.
Volunteering
There are opportunities to volunteer with us. CARDS (Community Alcohol Related Damage Service) is a befriending service run by Rowan Alba and volunteers. Get involved.
Support us
You can make the difference for someone facing homelessness. Each year we support over 200 service users in Edinburgh, Perth and Kinross. By supporting us, we can reach more vulnerable people across Scotland.
SVQ Taster Sessions

V true : people not profit
@linda_bendle @DrAdamGWBurley Very much agree. Being a hostel manager has shown that frontline staff are amazing and that B & Bs could certainly use some of that support rather than just for financial gain
Had a wonderful morning today with @RowanAlba at the Edinburgh National Portrait Gallery @NatGalleriesSco. Nothing brightens my day as much as hearing an @ALLIANCEScot Funded Project being described by a participant as like a family! @millar_rhona @SelfMgmtScot #SelfManagement
