Bellfield (community centre)

Bellfield is a vibrant community centre in Portobello, Edinburgh, housed in the historic Portobello Old Parish Church, built between 1808 and 1810. After a successful community buy-out in 2017, it reopened on June 23, 2018, thanks to local support and a £600,000 grant from the Scottish Land Fund. The centre serves as a hub for various community activities, supporting local businesses and groups, including the Edinburgh Youth Theatre. Its rich history and community focus make it a unique destination for tourists and researchers interested in local culture and community initiatives.
