West Kilbride Yuletide

2023-09-14 No comments Deirdre Oakley North Coast

West Kilbride Yuletide is an annual event that brings members of the local Community together to celebrate the Christmas.  Yuletide 2022 was a great success and brought back a sense of Community togetherness following COVID. All activities are free therefore everyone can participate and feel included.  By providing free activities, it addresses poverty and inequality by making it accessible for everyone, which is important as we are going through a Cost of Living Crisis. The activities in this event will help to bring back the joy and happiness it brought to all members of the Community.  The knock-on effect of this will enhance the Health and Wellbeing of all generations. West Kilbride Yuletide is an excellent example of inter-generational working and breaks down several barriers that exist between generations and brings a sense of Community Cohesion and Community Spirit.

Largs Green Futures

2023-09-17 No comments LGF North Coast

To provide growing spaces around Largs for people who live and work in Largs to grow their own food in a community environment. The project has secured land in two locations in Largs which will be transformed into much wanted and needed community growing areas. We expect to have access to at least one of the large growing areas by the New Year so the land can be made ready for the next growing season. With this is mind we want to make the gardens accessible and usable spaces for all and are seeking funding for raised beds requiring little or no upkeep and maintenance by their users once in place. The project's main outcomes are hoped to include supporting families grow fruit and vegetables for themselves and using surpluses to support the wider community through the food bank, a community larder or other community groups in the current cost of living crisis and for the future.
