Community Fund
Organisations in the area around the new Tullo Wind Farm are being invited to submit their applications to the fund set up to support community projects.
The fund will distribute £17,000 annually - £1,000 per megawatt of installed capacity for the farm developed by Eneco Wind UK. It is being administered by the Mearns Area Partnership, which is inviting applications for projects that should benefit residents in six community council areas: Arbuthnott, Benholm and Johnshaven, Gourdon, Inverbervie, Mearns and St Cyrus.
Applications should be submitted by the end of January 2012, and will then be assessed by a grants panel made up of representatives from the local community councils and partnerships. Successful applicants will receive their grants in April 2012.
The fund will welcome applications for projects that:
- Benefit children and vulnerable people
- Involve community buildings or regeneration
- Boost the environment or wildlife
- Have health, education, heritage or sustainability benefits.
Applicants need to be able to demonstrate a clear need for their projects together with community use and involvement, and value for money.
Guidelines and application forms are available from the offices of the Mearns Area Partnership at 44 High Street, Laurencekirk or can be downloaded here:
