We intend to hold a concert in Geilsand hall in April 2023 and would like to invite a choir such as Beith/Gateside School or perhaps Garnock Campus Choir and piper. The money would be used to provide support for these choirs and performers to attend this concert. Encouraging young people in public performances is important as it increases their confidence and health and wellbeing.
Funds requested: £400
Donation to Choir/Conductor to cover their costs: £200 Donation to Piper: £50 Donation to Compere: £50 Refreshments for choir and performers: £100 Total cost for that element of concert: £400 The remainder of overall costs: Stewards, First Aider, Hall Hire and Band fee will be paid out of Barrmill Jolly Beggars Burns Club funds.
Stoneyholm Mill Trust

The project will invite active contributions from local community groups and primary schools to understand the history of flax growing in Kilbirnie to produce linen. This will result in an understanding of local industry and how the land was a source of natural cloth which generated wealth through the textile industry. The funding will provide interactive sessions for each of the two primary schools in Kilbirnie, as well as materials to help pupils and the local community grow their own pot flax. The resulting plants will be used in demonstrations in community sessions at Kilbirnie Library.
Funds requested: £400
Interactive sessions £200 for schools and £100 for community session. Materials £100, e.g. pots, compost.
