West Kilbride Yuletide Festival and Xmas lights

WK Yuletide Group - Replacement of electrical system for Xmas lights

2 comments Stuart Fyfe North Coast

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">Installation of replacement electrical system&nbsp;for Yuletide lights in&nbsp;Ritchie Street and Main Street West Kilbride Ayrshire. Work is required&nbsp;because the existing&nbsp;electrical system which has been in place for many years no longer complies with current electrical regulations as recently intimated by NAC Building Services.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">New/replacement connections need to be provided from a number of premises in the village and the external wall cabling needs to be replaced as it is over 25&nbsp;years old. Without this work taking place there will no longer be street lighting motifs for Yuletide activities in West Kilbride much to the detriment of community wellbeing.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;">If this project doesn&#39;t go ahead there will be no Yuletide street lights this year in West Kilbride for the first time in over 25 years.</span></span></p>

<p>We are looking for funding to Promote &amp; Grow the Mens Shed in support of the Community. The Trustees&nbsp;are Hosting the Largs Boys Brigade along with their Leaders to introduce the Lads to Woodworking &amp; a workshop environment, to allow them to pick up skils that they will hopefully use in the future. We are also planning to have talks with the newly formed Womens Institute&nbsp;in Largs, as we&#39;ve had numerous&nbsp;women approach us&nbsp;about to the possability of&nbsp;setting&nbsp;Sessions for women.&nbsp;</p>

Digitisation of Collections

17 comments Largs Museum North Coast

<p>Largs Museum has a wonderful collection of Art, Artifacts, Photographs and Postcards, many of which are over 100 years old.&nbsp; &nbsp;<br /> <br /> It is important that these collections be digitized&nbsp;so&nbsp;they&nbsp;can be made readily available to the local community without placing any undue stress on the originals many of which are fragile.&nbsp;<br /> <br /> All of&nbsp;the musuem&#39;s collections relate to our local heritage such as artifacts, events, people and&nbsp;places.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>As an independent museum run by volunteers we are funded mainly by donations from visitors to the museum.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
