| Recipient Org: Description | Dalrymple is an area that has apopulation of approx 1600; it has an older conservation area, a large social housing sector and now new houses on the periphery of the village itself. Until recently, it could be said that the village lacked a sense of self or identity, in part due to lack of opportuinty and also lack of facilities. SIMD indicators rank Dalrymple within the 15% most deprived in terms of geographic access. DCLP as a charity looks to improve both the enviromental areas and social networks to try a build our community and address issues brought through social isolation and poverty. We have developed a community garden in the centre of the village with a new play area including play equipment for all evels of ability, we continue to work on having further infrastructure including a band stand. We have worked on our local action plan which has involved a great deal of community involvement and from this it hwas highlighted that social activities were something the area may benefit from. Since then we created Doonfest- a weekend of free workshops for all ages in musci, arts and dance as well as concerts from some national musicians: the Halloween Lantern Walk in 2019 had over 200 children dressed up and searching for our ghosts; we also work with the school and have developed a Junior memebrs section as well as provided free music lessons in Ukulele; our school has no music teacher.Ongoing work is looking at a CAT transfer of a council building with a view to using this as a Man shed; develop monthly up close and personal music performances in local church hall, and develop a 5k and 10 K run . We continue to look ar areas in our viullage that could be improved and are working locally with East Ayrshire Council to improve walk ways and more planting for a sensory area. |
