After the success of the fun day in July 2023 we thought it would be great to be able to replicate and add to this for 2024 whilst trying to keep everything as low cost as possible. From Pony rides to misbehaving donkeys, and the cutest alpacas around there will be something for all the family to enjoy. We are applying for this funding towards the cost of activities for next year.

As part of the Girlguiding family we help girls aged 4 - 7 to become more resilient through completing badgework from 6 different themes. We are well known in the area for the opportunities we give girls. We always try to source businesses locally who can provide a variety of experiences for our girls and make coming to Rainbows fun as well as in unit activities.

The Function Suite, while forming part of the building at Ardrossan Indoor Bowling Club is utilised in a totally separate manner. The Function Suite provides a Cafe, which provides meals to eat in or take away. The local Bridge, Whist, Fishing Clubs and British Legion Branch as well as the Visibly Impaired Group use it as their base. It is also used by the community for Birthdays, Weddings, Funerals etc

We aim to elevate and expand our Adult Drama group centred in the Three Towns, offering participants the opportunity to perform a devised performance in a local arts venue.

We are looking to redevelop our outdoor space into a community garden area with seating and raised beds to grow fruit and vegetables.

SeaSalt Streets have, as part of their vision, a longing 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 series of "different" 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 an opportunity for SeaSalt Streets to showcase their group, it's vision for the future and as a recruitment tool for new members.

Who are we?

Two local Girls from Stevenston in North Ayrshire who share a passion for recycling reclaimed items such as textiles and small household furnishings. We have set up this non-profit Social Enterprise to share our work with others.

What do we do?

We create items such as bags, pouffes’, quilts and much more using reclaimed clothes, bedding and scrap materials that are reusable.

Why do we do it?

We want to share our passion for what we do with people across our communities to share the fun learning and open up new ideas to people who may have never considered using a sewing machine or recycling reclaimed items.

The benefits

Learning new skills, being creative is relaxing and rewarding its helpful to the environment and its great fun!

Stevenston North Community Assocation would like to offer all residents the opportunity to come together as a community and celebrate the joy and fun of Christmas without the worry of expense. 

To achieve this we would like to offer a Christmas movie night with a meal prior to the film and snacks and drinks during the film.
