<p>SeaSalt Streets have, as part of their vision, a longing&nbsp;to bring life and vitality into Saltcoats and in particularly to the heart of the town centre. We have successfully completed most of the vision created by the group, a vision inspired through extensive public consultation with members of the local community and beyond. One part of the initial vision remains unfulfilled -- the use of pop-up events as a means of building community spirit and ownership, a&nbsp;series of &quot;different&quot;&nbsp;one-off events to inspire others to think out of the box and to bring people into the town centre thereby stimulating economic growth. The events will also be used as&nbsp;an opportunity for SeaSalt Streets to showcase their group, it&#39;s vision for the future and as a recruitment tool for new members.</p>

<p>We are residents of Kyleshill Court in Saltcoats, we regularly take part in the David White Engagement Hub acitivities, we have formed a steering group and would like to apply for PB funding to enhance the opportunities on offer for residents.</p>
