Our project is community based to bring children and young people together to learn to play the bagpipes and drums. Our aim is for the children to have fun while at the same time learning new skills. This allows them to build self confidence, improve self esteem , sense of belonging, teamwork and improved mental wellbeing. The project gives children the opportunity to learn at no cost to them for the tuition or the instruments. This is a key aspect as it ensures the inclusion of all

The young people of PRYDE - The Playz have decided that they want to upgrade the space so it is more welcoming and comfortable for them when they come into the space. They would like the funding to be put towards creating a chill-out/study space within the building. Which could be used all year round during groups, and a space to come to when they need a quiet space during their exam time.

We offer young people aged 4 to 18 years fun, friendship, and everyday adventure. From camping and hiking to creative arts, we help young people develop teamwork, confidence, and vital skills for life. We aim to improve children's mental health by giving them time away from screens and encourage them to communicate with their peers in a safe environment. We support children from all over the Garnock Valley and give them the confidence to try new skills to find where their niche may be.

Keeping costs low for our families, we would like to be able to kit the team in the same Home strips and provide rainjackets for the next season of football, keeping our fees to a minimum which covers our weekly pitch hire. Our volunteer coaches have developed these players for the past 2 years and are committed to keeping football an affordable hobby for all.

Each year, a number of activities are held during the Yuletide event for children and young people in the Village. This year, we are introducing extra activities outwith the Yuletide event.
