Our project aims to organize a Christmas celebration for the Ukrainian community in North Ayrshire, welcoming both adults and children from various cultural backgrounds, including local Scottish residents. This event will serve as a platform for cultural exchange, fostering a greater understanding and appreciation of diverse traditions. By bringing people together to share in the joy of the season, we hope to promote unity and strengthen community bonds.

This year as a local community centre we would like to offer families an opportunity to have breakfast with Santa free of charge to help in times of the cost of living crisis. We live in an area identified as being of multiple deprivation and some of the children and young people in our area have limited financial resources. We would love to build community spirit by offering a breakfast with Santa for free.

The day Kilwinning comes together in McGavin Park, Picnic in the Park. The second Thursday in August, try ir sessions, family entertainment, services promoting themselves and music on stage. Free activities and some paid for activities at a one price wristband to assist with affordability and inclusion.

We are a new community project formed to help support members of our community by creating opportunities for both adults and children to experience a holistic approach to wellness and mental health support. Both our directors live in the town of Kilwinning and are aware of some of the challenges and barriers individuals can face when it comes to accessing services. Our goal is to create a safe and welcoming environment for anyone attending our sessions, and be accessible to all!

We are currently setting up a community shed where people can meet for a chat, work on creative projects, and learn new skills
