MRO Journey – Join the Circle of Giving
In 2026, Moray Reach Out (MRO) is proud to celebrate 25 years as a Scottish charity, supporting adults with disabilities to gain a real sense of purpose, pride, and belonging within their community.
To mark this milestone, we have launched our year-long campaign, The MRO Journey: Join the Circle of Giving, with a goal of raising £25,000 to help secure and grow our services for the future.
Alongside this, we have developed an exciting programme of events and activities, offering opportunities for individuals, communities, and businesses to get involved.

Crafted with Care, Made with Purpose
At Moray Reach Out, every product we create is made with care, passion, and a true sense of purpose. From the initial idea to the final touches, our dedicated trainees, staff, and volunteers are at the heart of everything we do.
Our talented woodwork team give new life to reclaimed materials; we not only create beautiful handcrafted items but also promote sustainability.
We are also proud of our Art Yarn, crafted from start to finish using traditional techniques. From shearing the wool to teasing and spinning, every step is carried out with skill and dedication. Using fleece from local farmers, we create high-quality yarn that is truly special.
