We are nearing the end of a project to install a state of the art concrete skatepark in Orr's Park, Beith. We raised over £200k to make this project possible. Due to increased costs and unplanned for costs we have a shortfall in the budget for landscaping. Our contractor did not budget for an access road and Sportscotland required us to provide floodlighting, NAC did not give permission to use the lighting already in the park and we had to bring in a new supplier. We have had a landscaping quote for £24k from a local and reputable company and need to raise £8k to meet this. We feel it is extremely important that the landscaping is undertaken to a high spec and embeds the skatepark in the park. We require the landscaping work to be completed in September 2024. We require a financial donation to meet a deficit in our budget due to increased and unexpected costs during construction. We require this money as soon as possible in order to complete the project. We are committed to giving young people in Beith and further afield free access to a first class leisure facility. The skatepark build started in April 24 and we are keen to conclude the project by the end of September 24. Thank you.

As the club has been inexistence since 1972 in its current facilities, the roof of the building is currently in need of replacement, and as such a funding package is required to be built. At present as a club we are facing barriers with obtaining quotes and require professional assistance to cost the project, select the roofing material most suitable due to it being a flat roof, and help the project to get started and a funding package built. At this stage there is not a deadline, although we would like to progress as soon as possible.
