We provide community support to the 350 Ukrainian Refugees who have fled war in Ukraine and resettled in South Ayrshire. We opened our Ukrainian Community Centre in Ayr in November 2023. Since then the centre has been open 7 days per week and membership is offered to every Ukrainian Refugee living in South Ayrshire. The centre is used weekly for the following activities: • Therapy sessions with a Ukrainian Psychologist- including Sand Therapy, Teenage Group and Emotional Support Group for Adults. • Informal social gathering. • Peer support. • Nightly Teenage Youth Group. • Community Kitchen. • Educational programmes. • Arts and cultural activities. • Activities to address social isolation and loneliness. • Low level mental health related activity actively seeking to support the various degrees of trauma experienced by the group , including support in relation to bereavement, loss and separation.
