Redburn Bingo Group run a weekly bingo session on Thursday afternoons in Redburn Community Hub. This activity provides a regular fun and friendly social event in a safe and familiar social setting. The bingo sessions help to connect community members and reduce social isolation and loneliness. Members of the local community come along to the bingo sessions each week to have fun, meet new people and have a chat. The bingo is very popular and well attended.

The Committee aims to provide social events for residents of Vennel Gardens and wider community members to help reduce social isolation and enhance the health and wellbeing of our over 50's. The group has been active for over two years now and has over 50 members who have taken part in various social activities such as bus outings, live entertainment afternoons and lunch clubs.

Our project is a continuation of a long-term development plan to empower girls through rugby by developing their skills, confidence, leadership, and sense of belonging. We aim to support gender equality at Irvine Rugby Club by providing female-designed rugby kits for our growing number of girls playing the sport, offering female-led coaching, and hosting an all-female rugby festival.

Irvine over 50’s Friendship Group meets on Tuesday afternoons in Vennel Gardens Engagement Hub throughout the year to allow older people to connect with others and enjoy a whole range of engaging and fun activities. The group aims to reduce social isolation and provide a safe and welcoming space where older people feel included and valued. Our group encourages group members to meet new people, enjoy activities in the good company of others.
