We aim have events and activities which are aimed specifically for children who are neurodiverse. We appreciate that galas can be noisy and chaotic and children with a neurodiversity may find this overwhelming, therefore the events we are looking to put on are to provide them with a space to be more involved, enjoy the gala and to reduce any sensory overload,

Prestonpans Community Centre Management Committee would like to apply for funding the P7 Youth club that runs on Wednesday evenings and has been running in some form since 1982.
The P7 transition team within the PSG area would like to continue supporting P7 children with their transition into high school and to increase involvement in the community. Last year we saw P7 pupils struggling with the changes to their normal transition to high school due to the building issues the high school faced. Alongside this, we continue to see many more children struggling with mental health, transitions and engaging positively in the community. Through the development of a P7 group we can explore these issues in a productive way and increase engagement with communities and children’s opportunities for wellbeing.

The project is to support Mens and Womens Walking football including purchase clothing for the newly formed womans walking football group so the group have clothing suitable for various weather conditions. This would allow the group to play outdoors in suitable clothing during various weather conditions. The groups are made up of men/women of various ages, sexualities and health conditions.
Growing and Changing is about hearing the voices of young people aged 15-18 who have experience of hardship and want to tackle inequalities and create change. This group will lead campaigns across PSG to gather the collective voice of young people tackling issues like education, employment, social work, housing and stigma. We will work with the other youth voices in the area (MSYP, PSG Youth Forum and school councils) to collectively drive the change to provide a better future for ourselves and the young people following us.
