Following discussion with the children they would like to promote their health and well-being and encourage outdoor play. They would like to build better relationships with their peers through team building exercises and find that through outdoor play this could be achieved.
The children also love a school disco. The PTA always thrive to make these a free event that children can attend to meet their friends outwith school. A free snack and drink is always provided.
Below are details of how the grant would be spent:
Football nets x 2 - £325
Footballs x 10 - £125

5th Dreghorn Rangers

- The girls are beginning to represent their community at wider events and we would like a unit flag which costs £91 for these events.
- The current hall cost is £88 a year
- End-of-year badge cost per girl £20
- Craft budget £150
We would also like to seek funding to organise a camping trip for the girls. Due to the small nature of the group, we have not had the funding opportunity to arrange an end-of-year trip. The cost per girl would be £50, this would be a total cost of £600 to stay at the Blair activity centre with 3 leaders. This is the minimum cost as we would need funding for food £150, resources £200 and badges £30.
We are asking for £1,000 to help cover the costs of our budget for our small local unit to the end of the year.

Irvine Meadow 2009
2023-09-11 • No comments • • Irvine
As a club we are always trying to improve the opportunities available to the children however we are constantly coming up against financial barriers due to the rising costs of hiring pitches, referee fees, coaches education and general equipment. We are currently raising money to take the team to a football tournament in Blackpool during the easter weekend 2024 which is a 3 night stay including 2 days of football for the children. This is a great opportunity for the team to socialise and have a weekend with their family and friends whilst playing competitive football. Being accepted for this grant would help us reach our target ensuring that no boy misses out due to the cost for their family. The club are trying to cover the cost of the boys to reduce the amount that families need to pay however if we manage to raise more then we can reduce the costs further for families.
Cost of tournament fee - £140
Cost of accommodation for players - £2588
Cost of accommodation including parents - £6628
Sports Council
2023-09-15 • No comments • • Irvine
We would like to provide sports clothing to the young people in the Irvine area to allow them to have access to free sporting sessions. As a Sports Council we provide a range of the activities (most are not at capacity) but we currently cannot provide the sports kit to allow some young people the ability to access. We feel under capacity is likely to be due to them not having kit.
Cheap dri-fit sports tshirts = approx £6 -7 per item.
Cheap dri-fit sports shorts =approx £7 per item
We would look to help up to 100-120 pupils and would look to variety of sellers to try and get best deal. From our inital research we can buy this for reasonable price and we would go for best, and cheapest, to get us the most amount of items.
This will then allow them to access the 12-15 sports clubs that we run.
Youth Legacy Action Team
2023-09-14 • No comments • • Irvine
We would like to have a free bite to eat during each group as this is something that we are often asking for. The Legacy Centre currently runs a group on a sunday “Food chat and chill” which is one of our most popular groups and provides young people with a free hot meal. This has shown us that other young people as well as ourselves benefit from a free meal and snack while we are at the youth group during the week. We would like there to be a choice of tuckshop sweets for young people to choose one per night and a range of juice for young people to access. We would also like to stock a range of noodles for young people to have when they are visiting.
£250 - tuckshop snacks
£250 - juice
£500 - noodles
Extended Pathway and disabled ramp access
2023-09-13 • No comments • • Irvine
Our car park is hardcore and is regularly flooding and is very uneven. Families use this car park to attend cricket matches and training nights. To make it easier for access to our grounds we are looking to extend a current pathway that starts at our building deep into the existing car park area in order for families to reverse park cars and remove wheelchairs , prams from car boots etc and have an easier walk and far safer entrance into our area. It will also means everyone arrives dry and clean which makes it easier as well. We will also be building a ramp access into our changing rooms and toilet area for families and wheelchair users to access without having to go across to our main sports club building. The cost will be £1850 for the ramp, pathway construction including materials and labour. We have £1000 raised towards this project and would like to apply for £850.

The project is to fund a whole school trip for the all the pupils who attend Dreghorn Primary School, this includes the EYC, ESR pupils and pupils in Primaries 1-7. We want to provide an fun local outdoor trip for Summer Term 2024 which will consolidate and enhance the learning from within the school environment and make memories that will last a lifetime.
In the spirit of collaboration and in support for the Community Wealth Building approach we are in discussions with local Ayrshire companies to arrange a suitable venue that can accommodate the whole school group paying particular attention to the additional requirements for our pupils within our ESR.
The cost of the whole school trip is split into 2 parts
1) Transportation of pupils - buses. Approx cost £500. We want to endorse North Ayrshire Community Wealth Building approach and support local transport businesses within North Ayrshire.
2) Venue cost - covering the cost of the pupils, carers and as the risk assessment states the required teacher/helper to child ratio cost. Approx cost £500.
