The Scotland Loves Local campaign is a national initiative designed to encourage Scots to go back to their roots, think local first and support their local high streets safely and in line with public health guidelines.

Alongside the work on this new website for North Carrick, NCCBC and Maybole Community Council have also launched a North Carrick branch of the Scotland Loves Local campaign! Our area has such an amazing variety of local businesses and this project intends to really showcase what North Carrick has to offer to visitors, but also to remind local residents of the incredible range of products and services available right on their doorstep.

We are aiming to help boost sales for local shops and independent retailers across Maybole and our villages by encouraging North Carrick residents to shop local and support independent shops, while staying safe and following public health advice.

NCCBC’s Recovery Coordinator, Claire, has been visiting lots of local businesses taking fresh photos to showcase what they have to offer and showing off their lovely staff as they pose with the Loves Local hearts!
