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.

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

The number of participants and young people has grown this year and there is an urgent requirement for more microphones so that everyone can be heard.
