Paddle boards
2023-08-31 • No comments • • Three Towns
The unit currently has single person paddle boards but these are unsuitable for younger persons who would not be able to operate them. The unit seeks funding to purchase large paddle boards which hold 6 to 8 young persons. This would allow more young persons to try paddle boarding.
We do not need to buy any safety equipment as we are well stocked with them. The equipment is stored in a locked garage at the scout hall.

Garnock Valley Youth Forum
2023-09-14 • No comments • • Garnock Valley
The reason we are applying for Youth PB this time is to help people during this cost of living crisis and help young people in the Garnock Valley who are affected by food poverty.
We are applying for funding to stock up the kitchen cupboards in our project with food for the youth groups that run in the Garnock Valley. Such as ourselves the Youth Forum, Dalry P7 transition group, Kilbirnie P7 transition group and the S1 post transition groups. Each group would benefit from nutritional and filling snacks and meals. Some particpants may not have much food at home due to the cost of living crisis and food poverty in the area. Particpants might also not have the time to go home afterschool and eat before the groups due to transport issues within the area or because the group starts straight afterschool so they rely on the food provided within the group to fill them up.
We would do a bulk order through a local supplier each month such as Reids and the food would be distributed at each group.
A rough breakdown of costs would be;
£200 for frozen food such as Burgers, burger rolls and pizzas.
£400 for perishable goods that would be bought weekly such as salad, fruit, vegetables and cheese.
£175 for Pasta, pasta sauces, cooking sauces, hotdogs and bread rolls.
£50 for diliuting and fruit juices.
£175 for other food items for young people with dietry requirements.
We would like to apply for the full amount we can £1000 so that we can provide food for as long as possible to each group.

- 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.

Educational STEM / ECO Trips
2023-09-08 • No comments • • Three Towns
A variety of trips throughout the year - Science Centre / Whitelees Windfarm / Dumfries House / Museum of Rural Life - Farm Trip / Vikingar / Educational Science shows to visit the school - Sense.
Dependent on which stage goes there are approximately 60 kids and 1/2 buses needed for each trip. Just now we are over £250 for a bus and per head for most of these trips it is 4/5 pounds so it is approximately £500 a trip per school year stage. So any contribution for buses and activities would be amazing.
