The Hive

The Hive was an important staging post for the Spring Fling Worm Walk, providing an opportunity to rest and be entertained. The Hive provides activities for in-patients of the Royal Edinburgh Hospital. The service is open Tuesday to Saturday with a social event every Tuesday evening. Activities include art, jewellery making, outings, computer tutoring, DJ workshops and music groups.

The Hive is an activity centre for in-patients situated within the grounds of Royal Edinburgh Hospital. The Hive has a relaxed atmosphere with a coffee bar, pool tables, music playing and our team of friendly staff who are always available for a chat or a game of pool. The coffee bar has a wide range of snacks and drinks to select from, and they have recently reintroduced toasties that have so far been a huge hit!

No booking is required for most activities so just show up and join in! We also have computers with internet access; just ask and we’ll be happy to accommodate you.
