BSL Cafe (British Sign Language)
No comments Prestwick, Troon & Villages
This project will benefit the local community and surrounding area to introduce learners to sign language as well as current users being able to practice their language skill. As well as learning this could be a good opportunity to bring people together to support their general health and wellbeing and hopefully encourage them to become more involved in other things within the village.
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.
