2024-09-09 • No comments • • Three Towns
The group is vital to help each other and build community spirit. Helping each other through living with the day-to-day effects of living with said conditions. The group helps build confidence in each other and helps with each other's health and wellbeing. Creates a positive situation for everyone. While increasing skills and resilience. Group is open to everyone in the three towns locality.
The funding we're applying for would be spent as follows:
Mobility Assistance - travel costs for group participants to attend the fortnightly group and for day outings - as some group members have impaired mobility
Refreshment costs - teas, coffee, milk, sugar, biscuits
Room Hire costs - every fortnight over a year
Environmental survey to support community purchase of Kerelaw
2024-09-20 • No comments • • Three Towns
Later this year, we hope to buy Kerelaw - a former country estate in Stevenston – which is a well-loved, well-used, biodiverse greenspace. As part of the supporting documents for the land purchase, we need to submit an environmental survey of the site to the landowner and funder. The survey and resulting report – an ‘extended Phase 1 Habitat survey’ – would map the site’s habitats, note important ecological features, flag the presence of protected species, and provide management advice for the site.
Once we acquire the land, we will improve it for both the local community and biodiversity and seek Local Nature Reserve status from the Council.
The funding we’re applying for (£1000) would part-fund the environmental survey and report, which in total would cost £4626.
