A report on the creation of a social enterprise cafe turned into a heated debate about the stigma of mental health issues and the 'appropriate' place to support people.
The venture was proposed by Kilmarnock Station Railway Heritage Trust. They want to turn the Old Men's Cabin in Howard Park into a cafe along with mental wellbeing services on the premises.
East Ayrshire Council's cabinet heard that the proposal had attracted a significant number of objections.
