Barnardo's Christmas Outing

No comments Fiona Irvine

<p>Barnardo&#39;s works with young people across North Ayrshire in a variety of services. We would like to take the young people to a Pantomime this Christmas as their Christmas activity. We did this last year with non-recurring funding so this year we are looking for support as the young people that attended last year had such a good time, they got out the house, socialised and made new friends, and had a laugh. We will take the young people for dinner before the Panto and make them up a snack bag for the show. This activity will help young people with their mential health and wellbeing and social isolation. Dates for this years Pantomime are from 1st December to 7th January.&nbsp;</p>

<p style="margin-bottom:11px"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:107%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Our football team plays a crucial role in promoting health, wellbeing and social inclusion.&nbsp; It&rsquo;s a critical age for children to begin experimenting with alcohol and smoking but&nbsp;having a focus with our team helps to support the boys make positive decisions. We have a range of families in our team, some from deprived areas and a family from Ukraine. Being a part of our team has helped reduce social barriers for these boys and ensure they have a sense of belonging whilst also supporting one of the boys learn to speak English.&nbsp; They are also learning to work positively as part of a team and respect which they take into their daily lives at school and at home with their families.&nbsp; We promote healthy choices as a team and as a result of this many of the boys have joined the gym and attend regularly to keep improving their fitness levels and socialise with one another.</span></span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:11px"><span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:107%"><span style="font-family:Calibri,sans-serif">Our dedicated coaches volunteer a large amount of time to the team for training, matches and all the organising&nbsp;that goes on in the background.</span></span></span></p>

Sports Council

No comments Sports Council Irvine

<p>As a Sports Council we would like to support young people in the Irvine Area participate in Sport and Physical Activitiy and increase the number of people who participate in sport.&nbsp; We are a group of 14-17 year old young people who have had some great experiences and opportunties in Sport of our own and we want to help others have this too.&nbsp; We have personally seen that sport can help with our&nbsp;physical, mental, social and emotional wellbeing and we&nbsp;strongly believe that all young people should have the access to physical activity to help improve their own wellbeing.&nbsp; One of the barriers for young people to take part in sport is the access to sports kit and the access to free sport sessions.&nbsp; As a Sports Council we already offer free sessions (in a variety of different activities) but the young children who we see often don&#39;t have a tshirt / shorts etc often miss out or are embarrassed that they don&#39;t have sports clothing and therefore don&#39;t come to clubs.&nbsp; By having sports kit to give out, this will hopefully remove that financial barrier and make sport more accessible for all and allow us to create a sports community with strong representation and identity. The target group for this support would be 12 &amp; 13 year olds in the Irvine area.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

5th Dreghorn Brownies and Guides

No comments Vickie Irvine

<p>5th Dreghorn Brownies and Guides Group</p> <p>We as a unit meet every Thursday night in the community centre in Dreghorn. We try to have as much fun as we can while the girls learn life skills and gain badges. Between the Brownies and the Guides we have 48 girls as well as 6 leaders. We would like to take the whole group on a team building day to Craufurdland Castle in Kilmarnock to carry out a team building day. Activities would range from Archery to tree top trials. With this funding it would ensure that all our girls could attend the day out regardless of social circumstances. Being together as a whole group is important to us and this is our chance to do that.</p>
