Quadra de Futebol Cruyff. A iniciativa é uma parceria entre a Fundação Johan Cruyff, Instituto Plataforma Brasil (IPB), Instituto Arte no Dique e Prefeitura de Santos. A Cidade foi escolhida para sediar a 300ª unidade do Cruyff Court no mundo e a 4ª no Brasil por ser o berço do Santos Futebol Clube, um dos mais tradicionais times de futebol do mundo e de muitos ídolos do esporte, e presta homenagem ao Rei Pelé. A área escolhida é destinada à provisão de crianças e jovens de bairros locais diretamente afetados pela falta de atividades socioeducativas.
Dunoon Stadium and the surrounding area, sports pitches and skate park occupy a large section of land in the heart of the town. This area is also overlooked by Dunoon Hospital, Kirn Primary school and one of Dunoon’s two housing areas that scores highest on the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD). Despite the pressing need for recreation space to support activities that improve the health and wellbeing of local people, particularly young people and adults with health challenges, Dunoon stadium is largely underused by the community. Although the stadium is a staffed facility, the way it is operated and managed means that the stadium remains closed to the public unless it has been booked by an organised group. The booking process is not straightforward and can seem challenging for community and school groups.
Dunoon Foodbank is a small local charity providing food, meals and services, including pre-loved school uniform distribution, to some of Dunoon and Kirn’s most vulnerable people. The space is also being utilised for a youth club one night a week, a project established through Planet Youth that directly responds to local needs.
According to Historic Scotland, Dunoon Pier is ‘the best surviving example of a timber ferry pier in Scotland.’ Owned by Argyll and Bute Council, this Grade A listed structure is a nationally important building. However, climate change and the ongoing costs of repairs mean this building is at risk.
