The village community centre is a hub run by the village, for the village of Menstrie. M.C.A.G. aims to provide free community activities and classes to support residents during the cost of living crisis — including free access to the sports hall for badminton and table tennis, as well as library events, craft sessions, and other drop-in activities. These events offer a free, warm, welcoming space where people can save on heating and lighting costs while taking part in activities they might not otherwise be able to afford for themselves or their families. The award would help cover staffing, equipment, and utility costs.
