About get2gether

At get2gether, we believe that everyone has the right to love and friendship. We also believe that people meeting each other should be easy, fun and accessible.

That’s why we arrange social activities for people with disabilities in safe and friendly places in Edinburgh and the Lothians.

Our members tell us what they’re interested in – and that’s what we do.

Check out some photos from our events on our Flickr albums to see how much fun we have.

From ping pong tournaments, to the panto, speed dating, dancing and meals out, we’re there!
