CCG (Scotland) has announced the successful completion of a new, custom-built house in north Edinburgh for care-experienced young people on behalf of Harbour Home Scotland.

Partnering with Dean and Cauvin Young People's Trust (Scotland's oldest children's charity), the house will provide a home for five young people aged 15-21, who will each have their own en-suite rooms, a range of shared living and wellbeing spaces and gardens.

Dean and Cauvin's dedicated staff will work with each young person to help them on those first steps towards adulthood, education and work.


The house forms part of a large-scale, residential development that was recently completed by CCG on behalf of Harbour Homes in Granton which was originally conceived as 304 mid-market rent flats before the integration of this new, shared accommodation facility.

Gary Dewar CEO of Dean and Cauvin Young People's Trust said: "Our new house in north Edinburgh is the result of many years of close collaboration with our colleagues at Harbour Homes. We aspired to create a vibrant and welcoming 'place of hope' where young people are valued, part of their community and helped to take the next steps in their lives. Today marks the start of an exciting new chapter for Dean and Cauvin."

Heather Kiteley, Chief Executive at Harbour Homes said: "We have enjoyed collaborating with Dean and Cauvin on this custom-built house which five young people will soon call home. There is a real sense of excitement after the opening, and I look forward to seeing how this new Edinburgh community thrives in months and years to come."
