    EAST AYRSHIRE the community plan planning together working together achieving together Contents Introduction 3 Our Vision 3 Our Guiding Principles 4 The Challenges 8 Our Main Themes 13 Promoting Community Learning 14 Improving Opportunities 16 Improving Community Safety 18 Improving Health 20 Eliminating Poverty 22 Improving the Environment 24 Making the Vision a Reality 26 Our Plans for the next 12 years 28 Our Aspirations 28 2 Introduction Community planning is about a range of partners in the public and voluntary sectors working together to better plan, resource and deliver quality services that meet the needs of people who live and work in East Ayrshire. Community planning puts local people at the heart of delivering services. It is not just about creating a plan or a vision but about jointly tackling major issues such as health, transport, employment, housing, education and community safety. These issues need a shared response from, and the full involvement of, not only public sector agencies but also local businesses, voluntary organisations and especially local people. The community planning partners in East Ayrshire are committed to working together to make a real difference to the lives of all people in the area. We have already achieved a lot through joint working, but we still need to do a lot more to make sure that everybody has a good quality of life. Together, those who deliver services and those who live in our communities will build on our early success and on existing partnerships and strategies to create a shared understanding of the future for East Ayrshire.

  • Gaelic Language Plans
    East Ayrshire Council Gaelic Language Plan 2013-17 This plan has been prepared under Section 3 of the Gaelic Language (Scotland) Act 2005 and was approved by Bòrd na Gàidhlig on 2 April 2014. Foreword East Ayrshire has a proud history of promoting Gaelic, including the establishment of educational provision for all age groups from early years to adult education in addition to the active promotion of cultural events within our community. This provision has not only addressed the needs and enthusiasms of those with an interest in Gaelic, it has contributed to the enrichment of the wider community and raised awareness in this area of an important aspect of our nation’s heritage and culture East Ayrshire Council is committed to working with Bòrd na Gàidhlig, our Community Planning Partners and other key stakeholders to help safeguard the Gaelic language, heritage and culture for future generations and, wherever possible, develop the use of the Gaelic language. East Ayrshire Council’s Gaelic Language Plan 2013-17 is the authority’s first such Plan. It sets out our planned aspirations over the next four years, detailing how these will be achieved. It has a strong focus on actions for our young people and members of the community with an interest in Gaelic learning, specifically Gaelic Medium Education, and also seeks to promote a wider interest in Gaelic culture and heritage. Gaelic is alive and continuing to recover in East Ayrshire. In line with the national picture, it is vital to strengthen, through partnership, the local enthusiasm for Gaelic language and culture.
