At GCC, community is at the heart of everything we do — and that’s why collaborating with charities and local businesses means so much to us.

GCC x Crisis Scotland: Christmas Care Package Decorating

For Christmas, GCC came together with Crisis Scotland to sprinkle a little extra love and festive sparkle onto their Christmas care packages for people experiencing homelessness.

Each package is filled with essentials that offer comfort and dignity to those in need across Edinburgh and Scotland — and by adding our own creative, handcrafted touches, we hoped to bring a moment of joy, warmth, and humanity to someone’s Christmas day.

GCC x Cards for Bravery: Card Making

GCC hosted the sweetest, most meaningful workshop in support of Cards for Bravery — a wonderful charity dedicated to brightening the days of hospitalised and seriously ill children, young people, and their families across the UK.

Together, we spent the evening creating positive handmade cards filled with colour, kindness, and comforting messages. These cards become tiny moments of joy for children going through incredibly tough times, offering a spark of hope when they need it most.

Cards for Bravery support families through uplifting resources — from thoughtful care packages to activity packs and, of course, beautiful handmade cards. We felt so honoured to add our creativity to their mission and send a little love out into the world.

GCC x Kiehl’s: Skincare Masterclass

An exclusive GCC members-only skincare masterclass hosted with Kiehl’s St James Quarter store, led by skincare expert Ellie. The intimate in-store event focused on helping attendees better understand their skin through professional guidance, personalised advice, and advanced skin analysis, including the Derma Reader diagnostic service. Guests enjoyed exclusive discounts, complimentary refreshments, gifts and samples, plus access to expert consultations and information about bookable in-store treatments — creating a relaxed, educational, and indulgent evening dedicated to healthy skin and self-care.

We partnered with Lush Edinburgh for a dreamy evening of creativity, connection, and self-care.

Guests created their own handmade bath bombs, learned relaxing arm massage techniques using Lush’s massage bars, and enjoyed refreshments in a warm, welcoming space.

To encourage connection, guests were paired up to get to know someone new. At the end of the evening, they wrote each other a heartfelt letter to take home — a reminder of the positive impact we can have on others.Each guest received a goodie bag including a Sticky Dates Shower Gel and an exclusive discount, with time to shop the store after hours.
