Community Benefits Wishlist Submission

Hand drier to replace worn out equipment in the parks toilets. The toilets are opened at weekends April to November, during School holidays and at all events in the park such as the community fireworks, Picnic in the Park.

To upgrade the hot water immersion heaters in the Park toilets. The current system is down to one element but is far too big for just the toilets provision as showers are no longer used in the changing rooms. The toilets are opened for the public to use throughout April to November school holidays and weekends. The toilets support the community play park, outdoor gym and events held in the park.

We will be working our way from the end of harbour street towards the shore, throughout the summer. Materials will be needed by the end of March.

We are looking to have our hall kitchen renovated so that the building can be modernised. In the past the hall was used for larger events like weddings and we feel with modernisation of the kitchen it could be used this way again. We would welcome sponsorship for this renovation project.

We need to undertake some maintenance, repair and renovation work to the hall so that it can be upgraded for continued use by the community. Financial donations towards this would be welcomed.

We would appreciate provision (or funding) for paint to repaint our interior ceilings and for the exterior of the building which will require repainting again in due course. We have volunteers ready to undertake the work.

Financial help with the cost of providing Hygiene Supplies in the Public toilets which our organisation maintains. This is a significant outlay depending on how busy the toilets are during different seasons. Estimated costs (£600 per annum]

The Committee would appreciate professional support and advice about publicising our organisation partly with a view to attracting a younger group of members. We are as a group limited in our digital skills.)

We need approx 2 tonnes of gravel along with a new weed membrane to tidy up the front garden of our Bank Street property in Irvine so that our building feels and looks like a safe and welcoming space for all the children and young people who access our services.

We would love to receive replacement flooring for the chill out/ meeting space at our Bank Street property in Irvine (approx 16x12 feet). The space is used by young people who need a quieter space away from our main workshop, for parents & carers waiting for their children during art therapy sessions and for meetings. The current carpet is very worn and old and would really benefit from a new carpet or wooden flooring to uplift the space and to make those who use it feel more valued.

We are fortunate to have a small back garden at our premises in Irvine but we don't use it enough as it's become a bit run down. We'd love to create an outdoor learning space/ seating area for use over the warmer months and for it to have a makeover so that it's a nicer place to spend time outdoors.

We are looking for a strong sturdy box, with lid closure, to keep litter picking equipment and bags in for members of the public to use while visiting our beach. Given the location of this box it needs to be able to withstand all weathers. As an add on the box needs to be at least 1 Meter in length and have a weather proof pouch/ducket type thing on the top, so we can attach details of how to report bags of litter to the council for uplift. Examples of what we're looking for can be seen below: https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/news/aberdeen-aberdeenshire/4675495/take-for-shore-project-expands-aberdeenshire/ https://www.irvinecleanupcrew.com/ https://www.facebook.com/share/15nNb71iPD/

We require (12) chairs for our groups, that are comfortable and have arms, so people with poor mobility feel secure using them, as current ones we have are not suitable for some people

We have recently developed a small outdoor space that is wheelchair accessible, but in order to make it an all season asset, we require an awning that can be put across to provide shelter when required

We need a new floor in the toilets and the main hall, any assistance would be great. It has been wear and tear of a well used building, they were all new floors in 2011.

We support people who are struggling by providing a hot meal or a food pack. We would be really grateful for any donations towards food costs that we provide from our cafe where for some we provide for free - your support will help us to sustain this service.
