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.

Refurbishing the hall will enhance sound, comfort, and accessibility—supporting youth, families, and adults with a vibrant, inclusive space for learning, events, and community connection.

Our “Get Support Now” banners would directly address Community Development by normalising unpaid carer identity and strengthening local networks; Adult & Family Learning through digital engagement and by linking carers to support and advice via the online services. Early self-identification and 24/7 support access will reduce isolation and crisis referrals, benefiting the estimated 1,200 unpaid carers in Prestwick & Villages (and their families), plus local health and social work/care services.

The Night Before Christmas Campaign is a local registered charity which helps local children and vulnerable adults at Christmas and throughout the year who are living in poverty. Due to the cost of living crisis there are a growing number of families who struggle at Christmas. Christmas 2024 we helped 8072 children and vulnerable adults to bring some magic to them at Christmas. We provide red bags full of joy which consist of Pyjama's, stationary, underwear, a toy or game and chocolate.

The club is looking to develop the sport of Pickleball within Prestwick Indoor Tennis Centre as well as providing additional equipment to support our disability tennis programme.

New kayaking equipment and pontoon ladder will allow us to safely expand boating activities for more of our cadets, supporting youth development for years to come and community engagement.

The Iris Ayr will open an accessible community studio space in the former Borderline Theatre building. This will provide a safe and friendly community space for residents of Ayr North and beyond, reaching all across South Ayrshire. The building will provide a home for exciting new artistic activity, including workshops, film screenings, dance performances, intimate theatre, gallery space and a venue to share experiences and tell the stories of our diverse communities.

We’ll offer workshops, talks, and enterprise support for adults and families, creating a welcoming space to learn, grow ideas, and bring positive activity back to Newmarket Street.
