We have completed the new hands-on learning centre at Scottish charity, Harmeny Education Trust’s 35-acre estate.

Located just south of Edinburgh, the Trust provides education, care and therapeutic support to young people with complex additional support needs due to early years trauma and adversity. Where previously the charity has cared for children up to 14 years old, the new centre facilitates a new technology, arts and design programme for students aged 14-18, expanding the capacity of the charity to empower children to reach their full potential.

The new 500 square metre Harmeny Learning Hub, which has been designed by Loader Monteith with Studio SJM Architects, sits at the heart of a woodland site opposite the existing Category B-listed 1800’s Harmeny House, and replaces an existing outdoor learning facility which was unusable in the winter months due to poor construction and condition.
