For the past year, Finn, 13, has given 370 hours of his spare time to helping The Killie Community. He gives up his school holidays in order to work with children younger than him at camps, providing them with special memories that will last a lifetime.

🤝 Today, some of our 𝐄𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐨𝐲𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 participants took on their first ever interviews with local employers & club sponsors.

🗣 "The feedback was great and my confidence doing interviews has grown massively today. I feel more ready to apply and hopefully get a job."

The Killie Community welcomes 80 older people every week to take part in ‘Football Memories’.

This is a dementia friendly programme that allows you the space to remember and share their memories of the game they love.

All sessions are free, so come and take a walk done memory lane.
