Friends of Dundonald Castle SCIO are applying for project funding to deliver much-needed evening clubs and activities for our community. We have been consistently approached by members of our community to increase our extensive daytime offer of clubs and groups into the evenings. This will allow us to increase the demographic spread of our Community Hub users and visitors, improving accessibility for all those with daytime commitments with 3 new evening groups.

People With Parkinson's (PWP) are often overwhealmed by the condition to the extent that they do not admit even to people close to them that they have the symptoms. They do not go out or exercise and their symptoms deteriorate rapidly. It has been proven through studies in the USA, Japan and the UK that table tennis not only provides vital exercise for PWP it also stimulates the brain to make new pathways in the brain. Causing a tangible slowing down of the condition.

Maybole Juniors FC seeks funding for a new lining machine to replace our unreliable, outdated model. Accurate pitch markings are vital for safe play, fair competition, and sustaining participation across all age groups. This project supports inclusion by providing high-quality facilities for boys, girls, and community players. A modern machine will save volunteer time, reduce costs, and ensure our grounds remain fit for purpose.
