As part of 80th anniversary celebrations we are creating a memory wall of photos and stories contributed by Capaiblity Scotland colleagues, supporters and the people we support.

Learn more about memorable moments from 80 years of caring below.

In 2012, Helen Johnston (Health & Wellbeing Coordinator) and I took Darr and Pat to a Fringe comedy show, where we bumped into Dara Ó Briain. Pat gave him a big kiss, when I asked if she knew who he was, she said no, she just thought he might buy her a Blue WKD! Pat and Darr had an absolute blast.

Erin Wilson, Operations Manager North

When I managed our Tayview service during Covid, we created lots of themed days to keep everyone’s spirits up. Some of my favourites were Tiger King Day, Upside Down Day, Superheroes vs Villains, and a mini festival complete with a “slam tent.” Even the tradesmen on site joined in for some of the tunes, they were brilliant days and everyone had such fun, I was so proud of the effort the team put in.
