We are looking for funding to purchase equipment to run more Multisports clubs across the Kilwinning area, to increase participation and activity levels in the community. We are also looking to book the local Sports club, to invite all of the community primary schools to multiple different events such as a football, netball and athletics, allowing the local schools to meet up and aid in the integration of the Kilwinning community. Finally, we are looking to purchase a small PA/Speaker system, in order to run larger events and allow all of the participants in the community to hear us.
Approximate breakdown of cost is as follows:
Let Costs - £450
Multisport Equipment - £350
PA System - £200.
Total - £1000

We as a Parent Council feel that since lockdown during the pandemic that its more important now than ever that children get to socialise and mix with other children and parties are the perfect opportunity for them to do this, as this ensures that the children and young people to have the opportunity to lead a healthy and active life. We would get the children involved within the planning of the parties so that they're voices are being heard and what their preferences are. the money we are applying for would be spent on as follows:
- Hall to hold the parties and events - £90 x3
- Decorations because a party isn't complete without decorations - £310
- Entertainment - £200
- Catering - £70 x3
With the cost of living crisis people aren't able to have parties or children aren't able to attend parties with the lack of funds within families so if we are able to take the stress away for some parents and support the mental well being of the children in the community then we would love to do so. Our aim is to have a Valentines party for the children in February, Easter party in April and then a halloween party in October next year.

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
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.

We would like to develop the area for forest school, allowing the family learning programme to continue, with den making, outdoor cooking and growing. The following items would be required: Outdoor tarpaulens £100, den-making kit £120, discovery table £250, explorer kits £150, outdoor cooking equipment £180, outdoor storage £200. This would allow the pupils to utilise these facilities in their learning and in their playtime. In addition, with coordination from the eco group and family learning, they will be able to continue with learning for sustainability and allowing parents/ carers and siblings to access these lessons as after school workshops. These have been very successful in the past at bringing our school community together, but requires some additional funding for the resources. Unfortunately, some our outdoor features were vandalised recently and now need to be secured in outdoor storage.
