What is the SHOUT card?

The SHOUT card is a membership card designed specifically for children in P1 - P7 living within East Ayrshire. It is based on the well-established Young Scot card, which is available to all young people aged 12 - 26 years.

Aim of the SHOUT card

The aim of the SHOUT Card is to improve the health and well being of primary school children and young people. This will be achieved by ensuring that all children will have the opportunity to access a wide range of services which have a direct impact on their health and well being; and by ensuring that cost is not a barrier to them accessing these services.

The Recreation Partnership Project will be responsible for the administration and distribution of the SHOUT Card, supported by East Ayrshire Council, the Community Regeneration Fund and NHS Ayrshire and Arran.
