SPRING BACK, an anti bullying drop in centre, was officially launched last week.

Girvan and South Carrick Cllr Alex Clark, Bill Grant MP, Deputy Provost William Grant, Brian Whittle MSP attended the launch on Friday, September 28.

Spring Back was set up by Malcolm and Anne Kelly after their family was put through a two and a half year ordeal of bullying - and they found themselves passed from pillar to post through social work, council and police. 

They set up their drop-in centre, the only one of its kind in Scotland, at Girvan Town House, which runs on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 10am until 4pm.

The team work with all age groups in a bid to save lives and help those subjected to bullying.
