Alloway Railway Tunnel ART
17 comments organisation Ayr South & Villages
This is a community-led project to create and then manage a stunning artwork in a disused railway tunnel on an active-travel path at Alloway. To date we have involved over 2,000 local people mainly from schools and colleges but also involving the older generation to create the artwork under the guidance of a professional muralist. We believe involving so many of our local communities will provide a sense of ownership and help safeguard the artwork created.

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.

Arts and Crafts Doonfoot After School Services (DASS)
No comments Ayr South & Villages
We are seeking support for Arts and Crafts materials as we have none anymore. The objective is to engage the young people at our service using their creative expression, support their artistic skills, and utilise the arts skills of our staff to benefit our pupils. We used to have materials but the service nearly closed due to rising costs. We increased our fees, cut our staffing and had to ask parents of our young people to bring in scrap paper from home so they could draw.

Kirkmichael Community Shop and Cafe EPOS installation
No comments North & South Carrick
Kirkmichael Community Shop and Cafe provides a vital service for our rural village. Our idea is to install an Electronic Point of Sale System (EPOSS) in the community shop and cafe which will assist with community development of this village asset and improve our community space and facility for the residents in Kirkmichael. The beneficiaries will be both our community members and visitors to the village. This system will enhance the working environment for our staff and volunteers.
