In 2025, communities across the Garnock Valley concluded a 2 year process of producing a community-led regeneration plan, supported by North Ayrshire Council.
The completed Plan is our plan, with our priorities, for our Garnock Valley.
In October 2025, the Plan picked up a prestigious national award in recognition of its trailblazing ‘Next Generation Regeneration’ approach - the same week that the Plan was registered by the Council as a Local Place Plan to guide future development.
We’re now working hard to implement what’s in the Plan.
