The Fullarton and Harbourside communities both sit in the top SIMD areas in North Ayrshire. Lack of resources and access to services over the years, has resulted in lower incomes, poorer health and lower attainment skills. Fullarton Hub provides a range of activities for children and young people throughout the year but the young people have identified a gap in provision, especially over the winter months.

We are a girl-guiding unit of 9 girls aged 14-18 who have been dedicated to girl guiding since they were 5 years old. The girls follow a programme of skill-builder badges in themes such as camping, communication and first aid. Our programme of interest badges, skill builders and awards support these young women to try new things, travel the world and develop skills across our six themes. Many of the girls are young leaders for local rainbows and brownie and are working on building their CVs.

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.
