Viewpoint | About us

Let’s get to know each other

We’d love to meet up in person and really show you what we do. But for now, here’s a brief introduction.

We’re Viewpoint and we create joy in later years by managing a range of supported housing and care services for older people in Edinburgh, the Lothians and Fife. It all started back in 1947 and our goals are the same today as they’ve always been - to improve the quality of life and wellbeing of our tenants and residents by encouraging independence, enabling choice and offering peace of mind in a safe and supported environment.

We are a Registered Charity (SC005619) and are regulated by the Scottish Housing Regulator and Care Inspectorate. Our work is supported by the Viewpoint Trust.
