Re-Engage currently offer a tea party group in Ayr that covers KA7, KA8, KA9, Prestwick, Troon, but not quite as far as Kilwinning. They meet monthly on the last Sunday of the month in the afternoon.

Main duties: Are you a coordinated and organised person looking to help your local older community from your own home? Help out by organising and communicating timings and locations to the volunteers and to the older guests of our monthly free tea party. Liaise with Re-Engage to communicate recruitment, resource or other needs of the group. You are supported by a Support team as well as all the volunteers in the group, including hosts/drivers and additional groups in the area.
