The Girvan and South Carrick Business Association invites local businesses to its next meeting on Wednesday 9 September at 6:30pm at Wilson’s Mini Mall, 68 Dalrymple Street. The theme of this meeting is “Scotland’s Improvement Districts: A Conversation for Girvan”

Each year on 3 September, communities across the United Kingdom come together to mark Merchant Navy Day, recognising the courage, dedication and sacrifice of merchant seafarers and the vital services that support them.

Whether you're planning a day trip, a family outing or simply looking for something new to do, Girvan has plenty to offer. From relaxing walks along the harbour and beach to the Fairy Garden, Community Gardens, Biosphere Bikes and the popular boating pond, discover some of the best ways to enjoy our beautiful seaside town this summer.

Girvan Town Team has launched a new Community Bursary with the Lieutenancy of Ayrshire and Arran, helping remove financial barriers so deserving local people can access Royal and community events where their contributions can be recognised and celebrated.

The Girvan community gathered today at Duff Street Kitchen to celebrate the incredible contribution of Tricia Watts, whose dedication and passion have helped shape our town and surrounding villages for many years.
