At the heart of everything we do is our commitment to caring for our community and ensuring that no one feels alone.

What people say about us

CACE is my favourite charity, they help hundreds of people in the Cumbernauld area (not just the elderly). Normally they run day centres, group meetings for crafts, football, a men's shed, Sheila's shed for women and day trips at a small cost.

During the pandemic they phoned every one of their members every week, collected prescriptions, delivered donated groceries for the less mobile, delivered donations collected for babies and children by the local supermarkets and churches. They are amazing people, so kind and caring - they have been my life line.

I love coming here. I don't know what I would do without this place.

Met these fab CACE guys when they were out delivering Christmas meals and gifts, such a pleasure to meet such dedicated and kind people.

I fundraised for CACE by climbing Ben Nevis with friends. I learned about CACE through my friend who is employed with CACE and thought the work they do for the community is excellent - so we decided to try and raise £1000 to keep one of the groups going. In the end we raised well beyond this amount to give back to the community.

We had a lot of fun doing the climb and to be able to do it to raise so much money for a great cause made it even better.
