Quarriers is Scotland's leading and most diverse social care charity, providing support to thousands of people through more than 100 services for children, young people, adults and families who experience extreme difficulties or who are typically hard to reach. The organisation has grown and changed considerably since it was founded in 1871 by William Quarrier at Bridge of Weir, expanding to meet the needs of young homeless people, children and adults with a disability, people with epilepsy and carers from across Scotland and beyond. Staff numbers are now in excess of 2000 and the charity has a turnover of £42M.
