02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
A.Y.E. Girvan is a community-led charity supporting children, young people and families across Girvan and surrounding villages, with a strong focus on reducing poverty, improving wellbeing and creating opportunities. We provide practical support including a Hygiene Bank and Baby Formula Bank, alongside family and youth activities such as after-school childcare, school-based clubs and community events. Our services are designed to remove financial barriers, reduce isolation and give children and families access to safe, welcoming activities and support. We work closely with local schools, community organisations and families to identify gaps in provision and respond to local need. We also create local employment and volunteering opportunities, helping people build skills, confidence and experience while strengthening the community.
