Fundraise for Compass
Join Us in Making a Difference: Fundraise for Compass
Why we need your help
We are raising funds to transform the former Waldorf School site, Craigton Road, Aberdeen into a centre demonstrating practical solutions for healthy, sustainable lifestyles. Funding the project also helps us continue to run initiatives such as our Skills for Health and free Drystone Walling workshops.
However, we have a lot of fundraising to do so that we can restore and re-purpose the site for the benefit of the local and wider community of Aberdeen. This relies on the fundraising efforts of our supporters.
By supporting us, you are helping to transform an iconic site into a hub for sustainable living and healthy lifestyles that will serve the Aberdeen community for years to come. Your contribution will provide free workshops, skills training, and community events that benefit everyone – from young people gaining practical skills to adults looking for mental health support through green activities.

Kellas has made yearly donations supporting Compass in specific projects including the expansion of our garden area engaging an additional 30 volunteers and protecting our orchard trees for the future.
Their most recent contribution of £3000 directly supported the expansion of Compass’ bee-keeping, enabling us to introduce volunteers to bee-keeping and honey-production experience teaching them new skills.
