A new community benefit fund for Cree Valley launches in the new year, and local people will decide how it's spent. The fund will start with money from SPR's Kilgallioch Windfarm Extension, to bring benefit to your community.

You don't need any experience. If you are over 16 years of age, care about your community and want to help make good things happen, that's enough.

Panel members will help decide which local projects and groups receive funding, making sure the money goes where it will make a real difference.

Galloway Community Transport - GCT organised a day trip for residents of a local residential home.

The trip was in collaboration with DG Voice an organisation of disabled people who work to make sure that Dumfries and Galloway Council, the Dumfries and Galloway Health and Social Care Partnership, and other businesses and organisations consider the needs and rights of all disabled people in everything they do.

The following are the thoughts on the day from our driver Michelle:
"My first thoughts about the hire which involved elderly residents, wheelchair users, the staff and several walking aids I admit I was a bit overwhelmed! I actually thought we may have taken on too much of a challenge!

However, with some careful planning, the use of our low floor minibus and help from the staff we got there! I am over the moon to say that the amazing residents and staff and myself had a wonderful day!

A sing song got things started with passengers singing " Ye Cannae shove yer granny aff the bus!", everyone was in good voice.

First stop Lochside Community Centre in Dumfries where everyone had an amazing lunch! A selection of soup, sandwiches, teas and coffees and sweet treats supplied by the lovely staff at this fab community centre!

We then headed to the Peel Centre in Dumfries where the residents did some shopping. I loved seeing the residents looking so happy and showing me their new clothes. I hope the resident who purchased new running shoes which she proudly showed me has got all her steps in! I loved talking to one gentleman who told me of his love of rock music after I told him I loved his Guns n' Roses tee shirt!

We then headed to Palazzo Cafe in Dumfries for some ice cream which went down a treat! Vanilla and strawberry were the favourites!

On our return home I watched everyone leave with a smile on their faces as they were helped off the bus. I asked them if they had enjoyed themselves. It was a resounding "yes!" and it just felt lovely to be a part of it all.

I feel really proud to be part of Galloway Community Transport knowing we can help to bring our communities together, making people feel valued and included.

After a challenging day trying to ensure everything went smoothly, I went home exhausted but happy!โ€œ.
