After opening their first residential service in 1982, Cornerstone has grown to become a leading provider of care for children, young people and adults with disabilities and special needs and now operates a variety of services throughout Scotland. Supporting over 1,200 people each year and employing nearly 1,500 staff and volunteers we are dedicated to providing individuals, families and communities with a better future.
