Executive Summary<\/h2>\n
\n

In 2023, OCS begun a nine-year partnership with\u00a0Scottish Autism<\/a>. As part of this long-standing collaboration, OCS has supported Scottish Autism in enhancing the\u00a0Musselburgh site<\/a>, a day and vocational centre for autistic individuals. The project aimed to improve acoustics, aesthetics, and overall comfort to create a more inclusive and calming environment. The team completed Phase 1 in January 2025, with future upgrades planned.<\/p>\n

Scottish Autism\u2019s Lothian Day Service empowers autistic individuals to build skills, gain independence and actively engage in their communities. The centre offers spacious group areas and quiet rooms for focused activities such as art therapy, communication and technology development. A dedicated kitchen supports the learning of practical cooking skills that can be used at home, and the service provides a calm space designed to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div> <\/div>\n <\/section>\n\n\n\n
