Regional Office Perth

The Perth Regional Office of CrossReach is located on the south side of Perth near the harbour and on the banks of the River Tay. We are situated within a quiet industrial area only a few minutes drive from the motorway exit of the M90. The office comprises individual office accommodation for 4 people as well as a large meeting room space. There is ample free parking around the office which serves us well during the many meetings and training courses taking place on a regular basis. Given the wide geographical spread of all CrossReach services, Perth is the ideal central location to meet and is easily accessible by road and rail.
