Lennox & Argyll Battalion of the Boys Brigade - New Kitchen
Investment project code: 57
Estimated Price
£5,000
Description
The Lennox and Argyll Battalion is a charitable unincorporated independent Organization and part of the overall Boys’ Brigade movement. Our hall on Smollett Street, Alexandria, requires an upgrade to its kitchen. The kitchen was last upgraded about 30 years ago and now showing it’s age.Maintaining a clean and hygienic kitchen is essential for health and safety reasons. We will look to install a new double sink can help by separating food prep from dishwashing. You can use one side for washing raw produce and the other for washing dishes, reducing the risk of cross-contamination. Plus, having a designated sink for food prep can help keep our kitchen organised and efficient. We will also replace work tops and some kitchen carcasses. Our 30 old year cooker will be replaced by a Electric Ceramic Cooker (Stainless Steel).
The project is part of a larger phased refurbishment project which started in 2018 with the replacement of an inefficient heating system with a heat pump system thanks to a Community Budgeting Phase 3 grant of £5000 and an interest free loan of £7300 from the Energy Saving Trust. The whole lighting system in the building was converted to LED lighting at the same time. In 2019 and 2023 the apprentice painters from the Clydebank campus of the West College painted most of the inside of the main hall and associated smaller rooms for free. In return the apprentices gained valuable experience and enhanced their skills .
Location: Smollet Street, Alexandria
Proposed on behalf of: Lennox & Argyll Battalion of the Boys Brigade
BBs is an important part of the community, keeping young lads occupied and giving them life skills, by far an extremely important grant to encourage the boys and show them their worth. Good Luck all, I hope you get the grant, my uncle Les would be pushing for this so I am supporting from afar for him x
