No comments Arts & Culture
<p>This project focuses on community health and wellbeing and community spirit in order to reduce the effects of isolation within our elderly population and to give our young people skills for their future in the both the creative arts and social service type careers. We are looking to host a photography exhibtion which will allow senior pupils to display their photographs of the local area to invited local elderly care home residents. We are aware of the isolation facing some of our elderly residents who are no longer able to get out and around the local area by themselves. The aim of the exhibition is to bring the local sights to them within a warm and welcoming environment. Higher Photography pupils will design an exhibition to take place within the school where local residents will enjoy a social afternoon of conversation with young people about their memories of the town whilst seeing the development of the local area through photographs.</p>

No comments Arts & Culture
<p>Part of SeaSalt Streets' remit is to create public awareness and engagement through a series of pop-up events. As part of previous public consultation, it has come to our notice that people know little or nothing of Betsy Miller.</p> <p>SeaSalt Streets intend to use the funds to hold two events in Saltcoats to raise the awareness of Betsy Miller, Britain's 1st Female Sea Captain. </p> <p>It is hoped that the success of the events would lead to more similarly themed promotions on a regular basis.</p>
