Shopping Vouchers for Millport Community Shop Members

No comments Deirdre Oakley North Coast and Cumbraes

We intend to give regular shoppers at the Community Shop a voucher to use in the local convenience store. The Community Shop offers members a 'top up shop' at low cost but, with Christmas coming up and the Cost of Living rising daily, members are finding it more and more difficult to buy essential groceries. The local convenience store has been very supportive of the Community Shop and this will also serve as a 'thank you' to them.

No comments treasurer.cccmensshed North Coast and Cumbraes

The main aim of the Clyde Coast & Cumbraes Men's Shed is to help improve men’s mental health and wellbeing by providing a venue where men can choose to either work, relax, make and repair things, pursue hobbies and pastimes, get practical help with projects, and share & learn new skills. Perhaps more importantly, it’s a place where men can make new friends, have a cuppa, a chat, a laugh, and get out of the house for a while.

We are a sustainable community garden in Fairlie with 170 members from Fairlie, Largs and West Kilbride primarily. We have had many tools donated over the years since we began in 2008 but with use over time our tools are now needing replaced. We are in need of more useful and ecological equipment such as a battery operated strimmer and lawn mower.
