IMC Community Fridge first started in 2021 to provide food the local community who were most in need. Based in Springvale Street, Saltcoats we are in the heart of the local community where many are facing food insecurities for a number of reasons. Dignified access to nutritious food is our main priority and meeting the needs of the local community.

We are a toddler group for families with children under three years. We provide parent and child sessions to promote friendships and a sharing of experiences among adults, and activities to promote the wellbeing of babies and children. The group members have the opportunity to engage in activities that might not be available to them. The group is open three mornings per week, we use a large hall for active play and snack, small hall for activities and an early years room for baby activities .

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.

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. 💙

Grapevine Theatre CIC will work with P6/7 children of Ardeer Primary. The play will be devised by young people using Shaun Tan's 'The Red Tree' as a stimulus. The picture book theme is finding hope in sadness, which will be explored through the drama workshops and the final play. The project will impact the school as a whole, using craft workshops to add props for the performance. Parents, carers and classes will be invited to the final performance to engage the wider community in the themes.

A group for over 13s to get together in a safe and welcoming space to play Warhammer 40k and Age of Sigmar. Originally set up to get people affected by social anxiety after the Covid Lockdown back to socialising whilst taking part in a rewarding hobby.

Ardrossan Indoor Bowls Club has a large function suite which, outwith funeral teas, is unused during the day since the closure of its Cafe. It does offer a Community Corner where there are facilities to exchange books, use games such as cards, dominoes and board games and some craft materials. We would love to expand this and also offer it to be used as a Warm Hub, during the Winter. People from the 3 Towns could call in and be provided with hot drinks and soup and sandwiches.
