Drongan, Rankinston & Stair Community Action Plan 2023-2028 Household Survey

What is this questionnaire?

By completing this questionnaire you will have the chance of winning a prize

Why is it important? 

The survey results will be used to help put together a Community Action Plan which will identify the main priorities for development in Drongan, Rankinston & Stair over the next 5 years. A Community Action Plan will help local groups to secure funding and support for the main projects and developments that people would like to see.  The Action Plan will also be the basis for the community making representation and working in partnership with East Ayrshire Council, other agencies and organisations.

The 9 Community Council Group (9CC) was formed by 9 Community Councils within the Cumnock and Doon Valley area to ensure that community benefit generated from the windfarms within the area is spent on the community needs and aspirations. With in excess of £50 million coming into the Cumnock and Doon Valley communities, which will be shared across the communities, the community-led action plan will play a major role in how we identify the key priorities in the area. We would like to encourage everyone to get involved and to THINK BIG when completing your survey.

What happens next?

We require a 40% return of surveys to take your priorities forward. Please complete the questionnaire by 15th September and place into our drop boxes situated in:
  • Drongan - Drongan Community Centre, the Key Store & Village Store 
  • Rankinston - Rankinston Community Centre 
  • Stair - Stair Community Centre
Ideas and priorities will be presented to be voted on by the whole community. Refreshments and entertainment will be provided. From your responses and votes we will establish the priorities and produce the Drongan Rankinston & Stair Community Action Plan 2023-2028. 

Who are “we”?

We are volunteers from Drongan, Rankinston & Stair acting as a steering group to gather the views of the communities, and from that produce and take forward our Community Action Plan. This work is supported by East Ayrshire Council, Vibrant Communities.
