We want to ensure that our hub has facilities that allows us to offer a range of activities for young people and adults. Our work at Whitletts and particularly in the hub will support all the priorities from the CLD Plan. We will have activities and drops in for adults, young people and volunteers and we will provide support with financial wellbeing/ inclusion including fuel and food poverty support.

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.

Adult & Family Learning: Practical skills-building that enhances confidence, resilience and wellbeing. Youth Work: Young carers gain life saving capabilities and positive peer learning. Community Development: Strengthens local networks, fosters inter agency collaboration and mutual support.

Connecting digitally will allow us to build a dynamic community - particularly in the school, community and family groups we work with, creating personalised resources to improve mental health and wellbeing.

BLUE HEALTH Programme: Our proposed project expands on a successful pilot programme by Adventure Carrick of Blue and Green Health programmes in South Ayrshire.

The Ayr Ark was established in 2002 to provide a solution to the growing problem of underage drinking and anti-social behaviour among the young people of South Ayrshire. Our aim is to provide a safe space for the children and young people (aged between 11 and 18) and to fill their visits with fun and exciting activities both indoor and outdoor. We would also looking to set up our own football team to strengthen team work and the feel of unity in the kids who visit us.

The funding received will directly support the creation of a pop-up museum within the Broadway’s foyer, to preserve the collective memories of cinema-going in South Ayrshire and become the first indoor museum experience in Prestwick in living memory.
