Our Activities

The Group is committed to providing meaningful and comprehensive support to Ukrainian guests who have relocated to South Ayrshire, offering assistance across multiple facets of their resettlement process. The aim is to create a welcoming, inclusive environment that helps these guests not only settle into the area but also thrive in their new community.

English Language Classes Recognising the importance of language in building a new life, the Group organizes free English language courses to help Ukrainian guests improve their communication skills.

Cultural Integration Support To help Ukrainian guests understand and adapt to local customs, the Group organises cultural exchange programs. This includes introductions to Scottish traditions.

Job Search Support The Group provides guidance to Ukrainian guests in finding employment. This includes help with updating CVs, job search workshops, interview coaching, and connecting them with local employers.

Skills Development For those who need to develop new skills or qualifications to improve their employment prospects, the Group offers access to training programs. This may include vocational courses, digital skills workshops, or certification programs relevant to industries in South Ayrshire.

Mental Health & Counselling Given the traumatic experiences many Ukrainian guests have faced, the Group collaborates with local mental health professionals and charities to offer psychological support. This includes counselling services, group therapy sessions, and access to mental health resources.

Social Support To combat loneliness and foster community bonds, the Group organizes social events, such as community dinners, family days, and support groups. These gatherings allow Ukrainian guests to connect with one another, share experiences, and build a support network.
