Food & Heat is going to be the topic of our winter campaign for the community. We run the community cafe in the centre which is open 5 days a week 7.30am until 4.30pm. The centre would like to supply hot soup with a roll, or a hot meal & a hot drink 3 times a week to take a wee bit of pressure off in the winter.

We are a group of retirees aging from 60-80+. Yoga keeps us physically + mentally fit. We meet for coffee /outings to keep us socially active and alleviate loneliness and isolation. Modern technology means we need a laptop.

We are residents of Saltcoats High Flats and meet on a weekly basis. We are an older community of people with a varying mobility needs and general abilities. Many of us live by ourselves. We created our afternoon club to foster community spirit, reduce isolation and help each other out. We would like to apply for funding to help with days out.

Community Hub of Hope, is a safe haven for anyone seeking support with mental health, battling loneliness, or nurturing their overall well-being. Our community offers a compassionate space for open conversations and attentive listening. Join us to connect, share, and participate in activities such as walking, exercise, or any interests close to your heart. Together, let's navigate life's journey with understanding and resilience. 💙

Our aim is to save Ardrossan Harbour and ensure it remains a vital and lasting part of the town. Our campaign aims to spread our message across Ayrshire and involve as many community groups, businesses, and members of the public as possible.

We plan to commission an environmental survey of Kerelaw – an essential step towards bringing the site into community ownership within the next year.

2024 is our centenary year. Each year, we organise a number of parades such as Remembrance Day in Saltcoats and Stevenston. We also organise the annual HMS Dasher Memorial weekend at the end of March. These parades are not funded directly by North Ayrshire Council. Instead, it is up to our branch to arrange the funding for our parades. This application will go some way to ensure that our parades in Nov 2024 and Mar 2025 can go ahead.
