It was great to see, last night, young men from East Ayrshire Battalion - specifically 4th/5th Kilmarnock Boys Brigade, 1st Dundonald Boys' Brigade and First Stewarton Boys Brigade being presented with their King's Badge.

These young men have taken on a huge amount of work over the years and the King's Badge is evidence of that. We hope that the skills they have learned will help them in the journey ahead and look forward to working with those who stay on to become future brigade leaders. Their mission of True Christian Manliness is one of inspiration and development that we should, ourselves, continue to reach every day

Again, very well done to you all!

We've had an absolute tremendous year since May 2025 on our social media and now we need everyone's support.

Unfortunately we didn't quite make the list for Best Use of Social Media but we're in the running for Best Use of Video Content.

All we're asking is that you help support us by placing a vote on the link above - it takes only a moment but would be greatly appreciated!

Why do we deserve this award?

Over the past year we've worked hard to create fun, engaging and creative videos that showcase the incredible young people, volunteers and families who make 12th Kilmarnock Boys' Brigade such a special place to be.

From breaking news reports and challenges to event promotions and highlights from our activities, we've loved sharing the BB adventure with you all.

If you've enjoyed our videos and would like to support us, please take a moment to vote for 12th Kilmarnock. Every vote is greatly appreciated and helps recognise the fantastic efforts of our members and leaders.

Why is our social media important?

Unlike many organisations, we're a part of the community that wants to be actively involved in making Kilmarnock a better place. That matters as it makes it easier to quickly respond to major events like spreading the Go-Fund Me pages in the wake of the town fire which reached over 350K people.

We're also part of the wider BB community where we've been able to share our work with other companies to support recruitment and updates so that they can share the same success.

We were delighted to have the support of Kilmarnock Extra in Community this week as we celebrated the end of the year in style with games, music, dancing and more food than could be asked for.

Captain Sandy McNamara had the pleasure of meeting Tracy again and collecting a donation of sweets, cakes and crisps from the store to help with our party night

This isn't the first time we've had support from this shop and we're extremely grateful for this, and all previous donations. It makes what we do for the boys just that bit more special

🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨

Shocking scenes have emerged from Friday night at 12th Kilmarnock Boys’ Brigade…

Parents, officers, and even senior boys have been accused of CHEATING during the annual display night games — all in front of a packed audience. 👀

🎥 Our BB News team were on the scene as:
➡️ Officers were caught moving markers
➡️ Company Section boys allegedly sabotaged Anchor Boys games
➡️ Parents stepped in… and somehow made things even more controversial

One eyewitness described the scenes:
“These boys work so hard. It’s terrible to see these people and their half-pipe dreams cheating those deserving boys.”

Who really won?
Who got caught?
And can Officer Kerr recover from the allegations? 😳

Every year there's something new that happens and this year was no different!

We had our first guest awards presented and our first parents night with all sections but, more importantly, we had our first promotion to NCO in 12th Kilmarnock!

Although we're a company with a history going back over 140 years, we're still quite new as we've changed up absolutely everything in the past 3 years since becoming 12th Kilmarnock.

This is an extremely important milestone for us as it proves that we are headed in the right direction.

Of far more value is what this means for the young man who was promoted. This isn't an age award but one that must be earned with true character and this NCO has done that and more! This is the physical evidence of a true positive citizen and the least we, as a community, can offer to thank him for living a life of goodness and true Christian manlihood.

We're all very proud of him and we know his family are too - we couldn't have asked for a better person to be the first to achieve this in our new-form company!

𝕊𝕦𝕡𝕡𝕠𝕣𝕥 𝕠𝕦𝕣 ℂ𝕠𝕞𝕡𝕒𝕟𝕪 𝕊𝕖𝕔𝕥𝕚𝕠𝕟

This month our boys have been learning a lot about social media and we've given them a challenge and we'd love you to support our boys in this.

What do we need from you?

One of the videos that we will post today, with the other being posted yesterday, was created by the company and the other created by the Company Section boys.
Please watch both videos from start to finish and put a like/heart reaction to your favourite.

We'll be using a lot of data to show the boys the success of their post - this includes:
- Reactions
- Shares
- Video viewing time
- Reach
- Demographics
- Types of views

We're looking forward to the results and hope you enjoy both videos
