This proposal seeks funding to provide Event boards to publicise key events in Largs and the North Coast area. These will be situated in a key location on the main A78 road and be visible to pedestrians, drivers and bus passengers. The aim is to seek to better promote community events to those who live, work and visit Largs and the North Coast.

We're seeking funding for a large fridge freezer for our community kitchen in Millport Town Hall.

SHED is a community gardening project based at the Community Roots Garden in Main Street West Kilbride. We have weekly gardening sessions, offering a relaxed space to learn no-dig and permaculture food growing whilst coming together for friendship. The group is as much focussed on mental and physical wellbeing as it is on food security and sustainability. We distribute the food we grow amongst the volunteers and the local Village Larder.

We are looking for funding to provide t-shirts to existing club members and to offer them to new members as a way of building community, fostering healthy exercise and good mental health in an inclusive setting.

Craufurd Simson Park - Engaging the community

We wish to repeat our successful project of Easter 2024, which turned the main streets of West Kilbride into an open air gallery exhibiting children's photographs

Next project to revamp an area of the garden would benefit from 2 benches.

We are requesting funding to buy Wood & screws etc. for the Members to make items to develop their skills, which is great for their feeling of self worth by making Planters, Bird boxes, Bird tables, Bug hotels, Clocks, and other Indoor/outdoor items.

We are a third sector Early Years Centre based in West Kilbride with access to a large garden and forest area. Our aim is to get our children outside as much as possible in the nursery day. This has proved to greatly enhance their mental and physical wellbeing but it can mean that we are out in all weathers given the Scottish climate. We are looking to try to make our children and staff as comfortable as possible whilst outside so that passing showers or the colder weather is easier to brave.
