• The current hall cost is £88 a year 
• End-of-year badge cost per girl £20
• Craft budget £150

We would also like to seek funding to organise a camping trip for the girls. Due to the small nature of the group, we have more difficulty in finding funding opportunities to arrange an end-of-year trip. The cost per girl would be £50, this would be a total cost of £600 to stay at the Blair activity centre with 3 leaders. This is the minimum cost as we would need funding for food £150, resources £200 and badges £30.

We are hoping to arrange sports coaching sessions for our young people at The Portal in Irvine. We are also hoping to arrange a visit to Bouncestation - a local play and activity centre. We think it is really important to promote positive physical and mental health in young people who are struggling to cope with the challenges that Tourette's bring. Tourette Syndrome is a complex neurological condition. Many of our young people suffer from social isolation; difficulties at school; judgement from others; dealing with regular health-related appointments; and various other challenges. Our group, based in Irvine, is a safe space for young people - and their families - to meet in person with other young people living with Tourette's. We offer arts and crafts, sporting games and board games at our regular meetings. The aim of our group is to have everyone feel included, supported and understood. 

We are hoping to put on six sports sessions throughout the year in addition to our support meetings at Bridgegate in Irvine. 

Cost to hire out Portal space and a sports coach, plus provide a healthy drink and snack to each participant - £115 per session. 

Cost to take 20 participants to Bouncestation - £310

Total cost: £115 x 6 = £690

                               +    £310

                                                 =              £1000
