Bethany Christian Trust is a Scotland wide charity which started in Edinburgh focusing on homeless and vulnerable people.[1]
The charity was established in 1983 by Rev Alan Berry, then a minister in Leith, Edinburgh.[2] This was in response to the homeless and vulnerable people he encountered daily.[3]
Bethany Christian Trust runs programs both on the street and in dedicated buildings. It provides various counseling and emergency services along with community projects.[1] It also runs accommodation for men recovering from addiction.[4]
The Trust runs a charity shop in Morningside.[5]
