A groundbreaking fund allowing local people to come together to shape their neighbourhood, has recently opened. The new £9 million Community Spaces Scotland scheme from the Big Lottery Fund is set to rejuvenate local areas from Dumfries to Dingwall. From developing allotments, parks and community gardens through to improving village halls and community centres, the fund will improve local spaces and places, providing somewhere better for people to come together to be healthier, happier and more active.
Groups including voluntary and community organisations, schools, community councils and social enterprises can apply for grants for up to two years of between £10,000 and £250,000. For further details go to: www.biglotteryfund.org.uk/communityspaces.
