6th Clydebank Scout Group
2023-02-16 • No comments • • West Dunbartonshire
We serve the whole of Clydebank as we are the last Scout Group in the area since 12th Scout Group folded a few years ago . We have 3 age groups of young people being Beavers ( 5-8 year olds) Cubs (8-11year olds) and scouts (11-14 year olds). We were founded in 1939 and our hall was donated to us then. The Scout movement is a volunteer lead organisation with all leaders being volunteers. Our kitchen is needing updated to train all our our young people to have skills in the kitchen from maintaining the kitchen, cleaning, washing, preparing food and presenting meals in an individual basis and a group basis to ensure they can prepare meals at camps and holidays plus learn how to cope in life. There are 20 young people Within each group and 4 leaders per group totalling roughly 75-80 people. We would like to build a new kitchen which will be to the benefit of young people in Clydebank.

1st Glen Lusset Scout Group
2023-02-15 • No comments • • West Dunbartonshire
We run our Scout activities from the Scout Hall, Old Kilpatrick. We currently have 82 members within the group.The weekly meetings are structured to allow time for play and learning new skills through organised and approved badge work. If we were successful in our application, we would like to replace the current Xpelair fan heaters with a Mitsubishi Heavy Industry 10KW R32 multi-split air conditioner unit. This unit uses lower GWP refrigerant. Therefore, this new unit would substantially reduce our energy consumption, provide a cleaner air source as well as cutting our carbon footprint. In addition to the use by the whole of the Scout Group the facility is also used by other community groups including, a local theatre group, toddler's music group and a ballroom dancing group.

In this club 8-16 year olds will learn in a fun space filled with cutting edge technology. Sometimes they will be working with visiting experts. We’ll be offering youngsters in the area chance to learn new and exciting tech skills. We’re keen to start up a 3D printing club - but with much more to it. 8-16 yr olds in West Dunbartonshire will benefit from this project.

Minni Messy Monsters
2023-02-15 • No comments • • West Dunbartonshire
At Mini Messy Monsters we provide messy and sensory place for all children as children with ASN could come and the parents could relax due to there being no “structure” to messy and sensory play so children were not seen as being “naught and disruptive” !. We hope in the near future to put on more days during the week also, the best thing about class is that we are accessible for all children and families in particular who have more than one child have somewhere they can take all their children at the same time, classes are normally for the dreaded terms “asn children” or “mainstream children” and at our classes we do not believing in separating children and all children should play together! The problem is unfortunately there is not many places that are accessible for all children. Our numbers vary each session but we can take up to 40 children per session. The monies will be spent on buying accessible Messy and sensory equipment for all children, along with helping us to provide our new Makaton song and story class and accessible dance class for all children.
Knoxland Parent Council
2023-02-15 • No comments • • West Dunbartonshire
We are a parent council of approximately 15 members supporting 350 pupils within the school. We do this by meeting regularly with school senior leaders to discuss school issues and ways the parent council can support the school. We do regular fundraising that helps to supplement school funds, which are used to enhance the children’s educational experience. Fundraising is done through events such as Christmas and spring fairs, bounce-a-thons, sponsored walks. The money will be used to purchase Chromebooks for Knoxland Primary School. This will benefit all children, teaching and support staff within the school environment, giving them access to a wider range of resources and digitally enabled lessons.
