Norton Park is home to 29 charities and social enterprises in Edinburgh. We look after two historic buildings near the city centre and give them renewed purpose. Our business hub is a converted ex school building and provides affordable serviced office space to third sector organisations. Next door, the conference centre, now housed in two repurposed churches, this space has meeting and event space for hire, open to any business, charity or group.

 

Activities:

Short film screening: in the conference centre we will show a short film names ‘The Singing Street’ with a talk from a local historian about the significance of this film and its relationship to Norton Park School.

Tours: In the school building, we plan to do guided tours (fully accessible) on the hour – starting at 10am.

Talk: The architect who undertook the conversion from school to business hub will deliver a talk at 11am and 1pm.

 

2026 Theme: Heritage at Risk:

The conversion from school to business centre retains the historic fabric of the 1900s building. THe organisation is also currently in consultation with the community/stakeholders and users in order to help us shape the reimagining of the conference space to one that is more useful for all users.
