BLUE HEALTH Programme: Our proposed project expands on a successful pilot programme by Adventure Carrick of Blue and Green Health programmes in South Ayrshire. Through a consortium approach with The Outdoor Partnership and Adventure Carrick who are both local outdoor adventure organisations, Troon Water Sports Hub as the lead organization, will develop and deliver activities such as blue and green health walks, beach bathing, snorkel trails, SUP paddling and surfing.

The IT equipment would benefit the hall in terms of increasing lets as within the facility we could accommodate learning seminars and business meetings by offering a hybrid approach and also access to online learning which would enhance the development our our community hall. Also having a new notice board would allow the community to clearly display any activities and events that is happening within the local area and hopefully encourage participation.

Installing a built-in storage cupboard will improve our community space and facility by maximising the hall’s usable space by keeping equipment safely stored and reducing clutter, making the environment safer and more flexible for a wide range of community uses. This will also support community development. Beneficiaries will include all our current and future community groups. Volunteers and organisers will also benefit from easier setup and reduced workload.

Priorities 1/3/4. Community wide, male & female, adults and children are given the opportunity to play community sport in a fully inclusive environment. Encouraging active lifestyles and providing a safe space for social development.

Annbank United CFC has saw a regeneration in of the football club in the past 3 years from near closure to winning the Amateur Premier League. Our community football club provides a safe, friendly environment for local men to stay active and socialise, providing a sense of community. The club is well supported by the local community who come to watch every week. At this present time there is no Clubhouse, due to being destroyed in the storm, therefore we are unable to function fully.
