Crossing Together Toddlers was formed in March 2024 following the project being approached by two local new parents who felt there was a need for a group locally in Bourtreehill. Both mums are now lead participants along with our Mission Pioneer in running the weekly sessions on Tuesday mornings for 2 hours at the Relief Mission Centre. The group quickly reached capacity of 40 babies/toddlers who attend with a least one adult per child. The sessions are free to ensure it is accessible to all.

Arran Bee Group is an informal group of amateur beekeepers based on the Isle of Arran. We meet regularly to share knowledge about the science and craft of this ancient pastime and welcome new members keen to learn the first steps in keeping bees. The membership of the group is growing and we now need a mechanised way of extracting honey that can be shared across the membership to increase the supply of honey to island residents.

We cater for over 50 community members (45 active members) providing social interaction through Bingo, Quizzes, Lunches, Dances, Christmas Dinners and Trips.
