Ayrshire Over-50s group feel 'squeezed out' as meeting space is 'halved in size'

A popular Over-50s group in Ayrshire say they have been squeezed out of a new community facility – after being promised a meeting room that has 'halved in size.'

Bellsbank Over-50s claim the nearby primary school and associated community facility isn't suitable for their weekly meetings because it’s smaller than expected.

Now the group, which has been running since 1975 and is the biggest of its kind in East Ayrshire, is forced to seek refuge in Bellsbank Parish Church Hall, where they now gather each Monday between 12.30pm and 2.30pm.
