Prescribe Culture Gatherings

Prescribe Culture Gatherings are monthly, supported socialising events.

Our Gatherings are all about getting out and about enjoying the wellbeing benefits of Edinburgh’s free heritage and culture while meeting others!

The Gatherings are open to campus and local community members and take place monthly. 

We aim to run them over the weekends or after 5pm on week days, to help make them as accessible as possible. The date/times and Gathering location changes each month as the programme is directed by what cultural events are available in any one month.

The programme tends to be set for 4 months at a time. You will see the current programme below and if you are a registered Prescribe Culture member you automatically receive a copy of the next Gathering programme.

Every Gathering has a Gathering Host. The role of our Gathering Hosts is simply to ensure everyone gets a warm welcome, provide introductions to others and to support the group move seamlessly from the cultural experience to the nearby café.

The Prescribe Culture Gathering programme only utilises free cultural experiences and activities so the programme is free, however, members will have to pay for their own tea/coffee/refreshments.

If you are new to Prescribe Culture then please register for the Gatherings by emailing PrecribeCulture@ed.ac.uk.
