In relation to the identified priorities in the Guidance & Essential criteria what will your idea achieve and who will benefit from your project?

The Maybole Women's Group has been together for approx a year. The funding would help us purchase equipment that we could use to make items we could then sell and help sustain us going forward. The group is made of women who were isolated due to covid, anxiety or mental health issues. We meet weekly in Maybole Library and work with Thriving Communities and other external sectors who can meet our needs.

Please describe what you plan to do and what the money will be used for? (i.e., purchase equipment/resources)

We are a women's group supporting health and well being, we brought the group together to bring other out of isolation, to prevent lonliness and help meet new people. Thriving Communities give us the space in the Library to do this. We meet weekly and our group has grown in numbers from the start, although we have a Facebook page word of mouth tends to be the best advertisementof our group. Its the women's voice that counts, they choose what they want to happen within the group and some of the other ladies make it happen by organising the activities or guest speakers that will tie in with what meets the needs of the group. Any funding we recieve would be a bonus for us as up until now we have paid for everything on or own.
