History

Libertus Services was established in 1981 and has been running services for people living in South East Edinburgh for over 30 years. Libertus (formerly Laha) was formed by local parents with shared experiences of bringing up a child with additional needs. The organisation was formed out of a need for a service, to address specific issues and to help people enjoy a better life. Although our focus has changed to working with older people our values and priorities remain the same – we want our work to have an impact and truly make a difference. We now work with members from the South West too.

Please see a selection of photos from our past:

  • Art group silk painting.
  • 2011 50’s week. Props were made by members in the art and crafts group.
  • Country wall hanging made by our craft group in 2011.
  • Taken at our old building formerly known as LAHA.
  • LAHA Film making with our young adults drama group, early 2000.
  • 50’s week prop dressing table made by our arts and crafts group.
