Cityspace: Spaces to breath and reflect in the city of Edinburgh

Getting Involved

If our values resonate with you please don’t hesitate to get involved with Cityspace!

Tell others

Cityspace is designed to be a gift to people in the city – so feel free to pass on our web address to people you know who might appreciate the resource. There are also business cards available for handing out to others. For a pack of 20 cards, please get in touch. You can also ask to request occasional email updates by signing up to our mailing list link, or using the RSS feed to be alerted to any site updates.

Become a Cityspace Friend

If you are interested in reflective events and spaces being nurtured in the city, and would like to support the initiative, please get in touch. Friends of cityspace may want to offer prayer and/or financial support. Email updates will be sent to you mapping the developments of Cityspace.

Become a Cityspace Partner

Organisations, churches and groups who offer reflective spaces or events as part of their involvement in the city, are invited to become Cityspace partners. Cityspace will then promote these events/spaces on the website alongside others located in Edinburgh. Partner organisations may also appreciate the opportunity to work with other Cityspace Partners on collaborative projects.

Because Cityspace is dependent on donations, each Partner is invited to make an annual financial contribution to sustain the website and promotion materials. A guideline of £180 per year is suggested, but is not intended to be prohibitive.

Any contribution a Cityspace Partner is able to offer, would be much appreciated. Partner organisations automatically receive business cards to promote the website.
