Communities across East Ayrshire are being encouraged to back Scotland Loves Local Week, which runs until Saturday June 20, as part of a drive to support town centres and independent businesses.

Kilmarnock Town Centre Ambassadors, the Kilmarnock Business Association and the Kilmarnock Neighbourhood Board are among those supporting the campaign, alongside political figures in the local authority.

The message highlights the importance of choosing local shops and services to help protect jobs and strengthen the regional economy.

Supporters say even small, regular spending decisions can make a significant difference to sustaining high streets.
