We are looking to secure funding which will be used to support the pupils and families of Pennyburn Primary School & Early Years. The funding will be used for transport costs which will allow pupils to attend events mainly the annual festive pantomime. Securing this funding will ensure that we can remove the costs for local families during the cost of living period we find ourselves in. We want to make sure no child misses out in 2024, equality for every child!

The Ardrossan Youth Association is a committee made up of young people who work tirelessly to provide activities and development opportunities for young people aged from 11-25.

Healthy Families, Happy Kitchens We would love to offer a block of cooking classes to teach families and young children how to prepare healthy, quick, and budget-friendly meals. Families that include young children in low-income communities. Promote healthier eating habits, improved family bonding, increased knowledge of nutrition, and practical cooking skills.

Our football team plays a crucial role in promoting health, wellbeing and social inclusion and ensures the boys have a focus which supports them to make positive decisions. We promote healthy choices as a team and as a result of this many of the boys have joined the gym and attend regularly to keep improving their fitness levels and socialise with one another. Being a part of our team has helped reduce social barriers for these boys and ensure they have a sense of belonging.

We as a parent council have been working with the Junior Road Safety Officers to encourage young people to walk, scoot and cycle to school. To do this we need to make the roads safer around our school for young people to do this.

Our project provides female-designed rugby kits for our U14s Girls Team, enhancing comfort, performance, and inclusivity, boosting participation, confidence, and supporting gender equality at Irvine Rugby Club.

We would like to purchase equipment and help towards the costs the club incurs to hire alternative training facilities during the winter months. This will encourage young people to continue with physical activity all year round. We strive to keep our membership costs as low as possible so that the sport can be as inclusive as possible. Seeking funding contributes towards this.
