The Vinery Community Space and Gardens

We aim to be accessible to all families in our community.

About

The Vinery has been refurbished and re-purposed by Aberdeenshire Council, working in partnership with Aberdeen Foyer. We provide a welcoming space for people in our community to come take part in the wide range of activities we provide: gardening, arts & crafts, yoga, cooking classes, employability skills sessions, digital skills coaching and many other relaxation and learning opportunities.

A partnership between Aberdeen Foyer, Aberdeenshire Council and Scottish Government.
