Welcome to Fresh Start’s brand new website.  

Fresh Start is an Edinburgh charity that helps people who have been homeless get established in their new home.  Through involving volunteers and organisations from a broad section of the community, we deliver a range of services that provide essential household goods, practical and social support that helps people resettle successfully.  Fresh Start provides a much valued service.


Each year Fresh Start helps thousands of new tenants, ranging from families to individuals settle into their homes. This can only be achieved by the hard work of our volunteers and generosity of the donations we receive.
