Feed our Community

No comments Choices Community Shop Irvine

Choices Community Shop is a community food project set up by volunteers in the community to provide food with dignity to those in need. The funding will be used to help reduce the impact of poverty within the community based on individual needs. Our Community Shop has capacity to support approximately 100 households per week but with over 400 registered, many have to wait. This grant will allow for more households to be able to get support when they need it by getting access as required.

Irvine Rangers Supporters Club

No comments IrvineRangersCommunitySocialClub Irvine

The supporters club was founded in 2016 shortly after we formed the Community Social Club within the club to put something back into the community, such as Christmas dinners for pensioners and Christmas parties for children. As in these times of austerity it's hard for most people. The club itself used to pay for it but as stated it's feeling the effects of austerity.

The project seeks to provide visitors with a more informative and easier accessed display of the chair in which Robert Burns sat while in an Irvine bookshop.
