Directions: Please note the Centre is situated on the opposite side of Holyrood Palace from the Scottish Parliament. The nearest bus is the Lothian 35 bus which stops outside the Scottish Veterans Residences at the foot of the Canongate. Participants’ vehicles can park at the Broad Pavement (adjacent to Holyrood Palace) but this is a busy public car park so spaces will be very limited on the day and we cannot guarantee a space. We can reserve one of two spaces for folk who need assistance with access to the building. Please contact Nina at info@aprs.scot in advance.
If you have questions please contact Nina Sobecka, APRS Administrator, at APRS office on 0131 225 7012 or by email at info@aprs.scot
