East Dunbartonshire Initiative for Creative & Social Care (EDICT)

East Dunbartonshire Initiative for Creative & Social Care (EDICT) offers creative and arts-based therapies for both individuals and groups of people who are; affected by mental health issues; living with autistic spectrum disorder; and/or considered to be an older person. As per our service agreement with the East Dunbartonshire HSCP, EDICT is unable to provide support for individuals with a learning disability as their main diagnosis.

EDICT aims to promote self-esteem, and reduce stress and social isolation. Many people who do not engage with more mainstream day-care services find that creative therapies are a useful alternative.

Due to the impact of Covid-19, EDICT has made permanent changes to the service and guidance on attending EDICT. Please see the website for details or contact the team for more information.
