West Kilbride Yuletide
2023-09-14 • No comments • • Official position 1 • North Coast
West Kilbride Yuletide provide a range of activities for all ages and generations. Activities include: Parade, Santa's Grotto, Arts & Crafts, Market Stalls, Pipe Band, Brass Band, Mobile Cinema, Critters, Choirs, Face Painting, Marshmallow Toasting, Mobile Youth Centre and many more.
To enable this to happen, certain legal procedures have to be put in place ie Road Closures for the Parade, Market Opertors Licence for the Market Stalls, Public Entertainment Licence for the Live Music. Without these in place, the activities will not be able to take place which would dilute the effect of the Festival and will not create the same level of Community Spirit.
It is vital funding is available to put these procedures in place as the success of the Yuletide event would be in jeopardy otherwise.
The cost for the Road Closures is £354; Market Operators Licence (3yrs) is £405; Public Entertainment Licence is £384 Total Cost: £1143

Improving accessibility within Cumbrae Community Garden
2023-09-10 • No comments • • North Coast
We’re planning to pave round 4 raised beds in Cumbrae Community Garden to make access easier for people with restricted mobility, such as wheelchair/mobility scooter users or those needing walking aids. The Community Garden has a positive impact on health and well-being, not only for plot-holders but for the wider community who can access the peaceful outdoor environment of the Garden and take part in organised social events. This project will encourage more participation and improve community cohesion by improving access for people with a range of mobility needs and will help us promote community growing within a more vulnerable group.
The project costs exceed the PB grant limit but we have funding in place from the National Lottery which will meet the balance.
Costs:
Slabs £1300
Additional materials, delivery costs, labour: £1500
Total project cost £2800
Funding already in place: £1800
Funding requested from PB: £1000

The Community Centre will be used to provide a drop-in facility. It will be a weekly come as you please drop-in for the community providing refreshment, social interaction in a club like environment. It is hoped to offer soup, bread, tea and coffee and biscuits. It is assumed that it will run for 15 weeks from December til March and operate for two hours a week. The likely cost to provide this service is estimated as follows: Soup/bread £45/week, tea/coffee £8/week and venue charge £28/week for 15 weeks total cost is £1215. It is estimated that approximately 30 people per week will attend. Should attendance be such that we consider a small charge per head to be reasonable then that will be used to offset expenses beyond any awarded funds.
