Irvine Table Tennis Club was founded in 2018 and is based at the Portal, Irvine. Our club which is affiliated to TT Scotland, runs weekly, every Tuesday where we have 12-15 tables set up for use. Irvine TTC is a community club for everyone in Irvine town centre, where our volunteers and coaches have created a safe space for all to enjoy playing table tennis regardless of age, ability and background.

We would like to purchase equipment for local families to enjoy the benefit of at Kilmory Hall. In recent months our younger members have been enjoying our space to play pool, listen to music and enjoy the space with their siblings, friends, parents and grandparents. As they become more isolated in a rural area in the winter months it would be great to update the equipment and give them a space to enjoy together.

North Ayrshire Tandem Cycling is a local group set up in Ayrshire in August 2023 that allows visually impaired people to enjoy cycling with the support of a sighted pilot. We currently have 27 Members in total, 9 of which who are visually impaired. We enjoy weekly and midweek organised outings. We also have organised “Have a go on a Tandem” days once a month, where people can come along and make use of our Tandems.

The Eilean's Bridge Club, offers the opportunity to members of the community to play the game of Bridge in a supportive and friendly environment regardless of ability or ethnicity. Our fledgling Club has shown that positive relationships between people who may not otherwise have come together have been formed. Thanks to funding by TNL Community Fund, we have been able to offer 36 weeks of free beginners bridge tuition to residents in Millport.

Chatty Chalkers (a subgroup of SeaSalt Streets) wishes to expand Saltcoats' arts & heritage trail by creating more murals and introducing small pieces of wire sculptures.

Our budget friendly community café serves as an important gathering spot, fostering connections and local initiatives. Enhancing its appeal with eye-catching signage and outdoor seating can attract more customers and dog walkers & create a welcoming atmosphere for residents to relax and socialise, ultimately strengthening community interaction and togetherness.
