An appeal, Edinburgh based.
Discussion
A friend of mine's 19 year old son recently very seriously injured himself testing a racing car for Dundee University, he has been in intensive care for a week and has had to have brain surgery to save his life.
He is out of intensive care now but still very poorly and no-one yet knows what damage might have been done.
She, my friend, is not local to the hospital in Edinburgh and needs to find some accommodation because the hospital only caters for relatives of patients in intensive care. She lives 300 miles away and needs to be near her son.
She is a gardener and does not have a great deal of money so I am asking if anyone has anything, a hotel room, an apartment, a mobile home, that she could rent for a bargain price.
Thanks for reading this.

Sorry I can't help (although I am in Edinburgh).
It might be worthwhile posting this thread in the Scotland section, you might stay on the front page longer and get more local viewers.
Good luck.
Cheers, if this drops too far I will. I don't want to lose this because of double posting though It might be worthwhile posting this thread in the Scotland section, you might stay on the front page longer and get more local viewers.

I assume she is looking for somewhere immediately?
Check out hostels, as well as the student accommodation at Heriot-Watt, Edinburgh and Napier Universities.
I've also posted a message in the Heriot-Watt Motorsports societies and will spread the word as much as possible: https://www.facebook.com/groups/169794064670/
