We are launching a new project offering free and subsidised trips and activities for neurodivergent families and carers in the North Coast. Designed by our dedicated volunteers and members to improve wellbeing, community spirit, and promote financial inclusion. We have raised £900 to date and seek £1000 from the PB to help make our project a reality. Including animal handling sessions, family craft events, a trip to Culzean Castle, Edinburgh Zoo VIP lantern experience, and a carers lunch.

The aim of this project is to bring the community together to share movies, music and food to help improve community cohesion as well and mental health and wellbeing during the post New Year period.

The project will cover the cost of the ‘Change of Use’ fee to North Ayrshire Council, allowing us to formally adopt donated derelict land and lay the foundations for a greener, more resilient future for our community.
