<p><strong>We are a newly esablished Tandem Cycling Group, set up to allow Vision Impaired people like myself, to get<br /> out and about on a Tandem Bike, together with a fully qualified Pilot. Being Vision Impaired does&#39;nt mean&nbsp;<br /> that you cant ride a bike. We are a relitivly new group base in Kilwinning, but are very open to members from&nbsp;<br /> the All North Ayrshire area&#39;s. We are at the stage where we have a Constitution, proposed and seconded at our &nbsp;first&nbsp;<br /> AGM held on Tuesday 15th August 2023 where we openly elected a committee from 18 members.&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><br /> &nbsp;</p>

<p>The money would fund archaeological work&nbsp;to oversee wetland creation at Ardeer Quarry LNR in Stevenston, making sure the&nbsp;project does not impact any&nbsp;undiscovered archaeological relics that might be there.</p>
